This role likely qualifies for a Skilled Worker visa
SOC 2421 (85% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £49,200, and Michael Page 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 3533 (Financial and accounting technicians, If the role is more technician-level than qualified accountant level) or SOC 1131 (Financial managers and directors, If managing people/budget is main job despite 'sole contributor'). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
