SOC 2440 (80% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £56,500, and Allica Bank 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 3534 (Financial accounts managers, Relationship/client management of financial accounts could fit) or SOC 1131 (Financial managers and directors, Transaction manager in financial services index entry). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
