SOC 2422 (85% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £45,800, and The LADbible Group Limited 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 2431 (Management consultants and business analysts, Financial modelling and business analysis focus could fit management consultants) or SOC 3544 (Data analysts, Heavy data analysis and forecasting could fit data analysts). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
