SOC 2129 is an eligible occupation, but we are only 50% sure that is the right code. Arup is a licensed sponsor, so if the code fits, the role should qualify. Check the occupation eligibility rules against what the job actually involves.
This could also be SOC 2122 (Mechanical engineers) or SOC 3113 (Engineering technicians). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
