SOC 3429 (70% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £41,700, and Amcor 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, Packaging engineer role if engineering focus dominates) or SOC 2434 (Business and related research professionals, R&D technician/research professional if analysis dominates). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
