This role may not meet Skilled Worker requirements
SOC 3132 is an eligible occupation, and GLF Schools is a licensed sponsor, but this role does not currently meet Skilled Worker sponsorship requirements.
This could also be SOC 3131 (IT operations technicians, Some network and system maintenance duties described). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
About the role
Your Opportunity

Not necessarily. GLF Schools holds a sponsor licence, but sponsorship for a specific hire is always the employer's decision. Be upfront in your application that you'll require it.
