This role likely qualifies for a Skilled Worker visa
SOC 2127 (80% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £51,900, and Concept 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 2114 (Physical scientists, The role requires a Chartered Geologist and involves geotechnical/geological work) or SOC 2455 (Construction project managers and related professionals, Manages construction/civil engineering projects with client and contract focus). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
