This role may not meet Skilled Worker requirements
SOC 8143 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.
Worth checking: this could also be SOC 3115 (Quality assurance technicians, If the role involved technical testing rather than inspection and disposition of materials.), which is on the eligible-occupation list. Ask Abbott what the duties actually are.
