SOC 2322 is an eligible occupation, but we are only 56% sure that is the right code. Oldham College and University Campus Oldham is a licensed sponsor, so if the code fits, the role should qualify. Check the occupation eligibility rules against what the job actually involves.
This could also be SOC 2312 (Further education teaching professionals). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
