This role may qualify for a Skilled Worker visa
SOC 4132 is an eligible occupation, but we are only 50% sure that is the right code. IQUW Administration Services Limited is a licensed sponsor, so if the code fits, the role should qualify. Check the occupation eligibility rules against what the job actually involves.
This could also be SOC 3541 (Estimators, valuers and assessors) or SOC 3532 (Insurance underwriters). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
