This role likely qualifies for a Skilled Worker visa
SOC 2431 (75% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £50,200, and DNV 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 2129 (Engineering professionals not elsewhere classified., Deep technical energy expertise could make it engineering consultancy work) or SOC 2440 (Business and financial project management professionals, Manages multidisciplinary project teams delivering advisory projects). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
