SOC 1131 (75% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £75,100, and Wise Payments 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 2133 (IT business analysts, architects and systems designers, Heavy focus on ERP selection, finance systems and data product strategy) or SOC 2440 (Business and financial project management professionals, ERP selection and implementation is project management work). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
