This role may qualify for a Skilled Worker visa

SOC 5319 is an eligible occupation, but we are only 26% sure that is the right code. Tesco is a licensed sponsor, so if the code fits, the role should qualify. Check the occupation eligibility rules against what the job actually involves.

Worth checking: this could also be SOC 5246 (Electrical service and maintenance mechanics and repairers), which is not on the eligible-occupation list. Ask Tesco what the duties actually are.

Strategic tip: apply early
