SOC 2433 is an eligible occupation, but we are only 55% sure that is the right code. Saragossa is a licensed sponsor, so if the code fits, the role should qualify. Check the occupation eligibility rules against what the job actually involves.
This could also be SOC 2422 (Finance and investment analysts and advisers) or SOC 2134 (Programmers and software development professionals). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
New graduate or PhD holder? Pick one of the lower rates.
