SOC 1131 (75% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £75,100, and Waystone 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 3534 (Financial accounts managers, Client relationship manager in financial services fits the RM team management) or SOC 1139 (Functional managers and directors not elsewhere classified., Head of portfolio management covers senior functional management duties). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
