This role likely qualifies for a Skilled Worker visa
SOC 4129 (75% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £41,700, and A&O Shearman 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 4122 (Book-keepers, payroll managers and wages clerks, Book-keeping/accounting assistant role processing financial transactions) or SOC 4121 (Credit controllers, Credit control focus on timely collection of cash). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
