SOC 2482 (80% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £48,200, and Severn Trent 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 2152 (Environment professionals, Strong environmental/regulatory focus with Environment Agency relationship ownership) or SOC 1254 (Waste disposal and environmental services managers, Wastewater treatment site compliance and permit management responsibilities). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
