SOC 3556 (75% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £55,200, and Tesco 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 2432 (Marketing and commercial managers, Product marketing focus on retail media could fit marketing management) or SOC 2132 (IT managers, Digital product manager in computer services context). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
