SOC 2431 (80% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £50,200, and Royal London 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 2440 (Business and financial project management professionals, Business change/project management focus on transformation delivery) or SOC 2133 (IT business analysts, architects and systems designers, Data, automation and AI emphasis could fit IT business analysis). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
