SOC 2127 (85% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £51,900, and STRABAG 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 2123 (Electrical engineers, Strong electrical design focus could fit electrical engineer). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
