This role may not meet Skilled Worker requirements
SOC 9231 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.
This could also be SOC 4133 (Stock control clerks and assistants) or SOC 4134 (Transport and distribution clerks and assistants). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
