SOC 3556 (85% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £55,200, and North 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 1132 (Marketing, sales and advertising directors, Senior title and C-level negotiation could suggest director-level role) or SOC 3552 (Business sales executives, Technical solution selling to datacentre customers resembles business sales executive). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
