This role likely qualifies for a Skilled Worker visa
SOC 2482 (75% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £48,200, and Vertiv 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 2431 (Management consultants and business analysts, Continuous improvement and business analysis focus could fit management consultancy) or SOC 3544 (Data analysts, Heavy analytics and dashboards role could be data analyst). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
