SOC 1258 (85% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £70,100, and Currie & Brown is a licensed sponsor. That is our reading of the rules. Whether they issue a Certificate of Sponsorship is still their call.
This could also be SOC 1139 (Functional managers and directors not elsewhere classified., Generic director role without specific consultancy focus) or SOC 1132 (Marketing, sales and advertising directors, Strong emphasis on promotion and business development). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
