This role likely qualifies for a Skilled Worker visa
SOC 2312 (85% match) is an eligible occupation, and Abingdon and Witney College is a licensed sponsor. That is our reading of the rules. Whether they issue a Certificate of Sponsorship is still their call.
Worth checking: this could also be SOC 3574 (Other vocational and industrial trainers, Assessor role delivering workplace assessments could fit vocational trainer), which is not on the eligible-occupation list. Ask Abingdon and Witney College what the duties actually are.
