SOC 3120 is an eligible occupation, but we are only 29% sure that is the right code. G4S 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 3113 (Engineering technicians) or SOC 2122 (Mechanical engineers). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
