SOC 2259 (85% match) is an eligible occupation, and Leeds Beckett University 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 2237 (Other registered nursing professionals, Registered nurse with NMC registration; nursing professional group could fit). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
