This role likely qualifies for a Skilled Worker visa
SOC 2431 (72% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £50,200, and Altrad UK, Ireland & Nordics 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 2440 (Business and financial project management professionals, Focus on project risk management across programmes). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
