This role likely qualifies for a Skilled Worker visa
SOC 2237 (85% match) is an eligible occupation, and DERBYSHIRE CRICKET FOUNDATION LIMITED 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 2259 (Other health professionals not elsewhere classified., Facilitator role with educational focus could be other health professional n.e.c.). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
