This role likely qualifies for a Skilled Worker visa
SOC 2127 (85% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £51,900, and Balfour Beatty plc 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 1122 (Production managers and directors in construction, If managing construction resources is the main duty rather than engineering project management). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
