Occupation not currently eligible

This role may not meet Skilled Worker requirements

SOC 8159 is not currently on the eligible-occupation list, so a Skilled Worker visa is unlikely here. Check the occupation eligibility rules and confirm with the employer.

This could also be SOC 6232 (Caretakers, Caretaker duties overlap with building security and maintenance work) or SOC 9129 (Elementary construction occupations not elsewhere classified., General building maintenance assistant work could fit elementary occupations). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.

Strategic tip: apply early

Sponsored roles fill quickly, and the ones that name a salary go quickest. If this one looks right, apply in the first few days rather than saving it for the weekend.
