SOC 1171 is an eligible occupation, but we are only 56% sure that is the right code. Northern Care Alliance NHS Foundation Trust is a licensed sponsor, so if the code fits, the role should qualify. Check the occupation eligibility rules against what the job actually involves.
Worth checking: this could also be SOC 1231 (Health care practice managers), which is not on the eligible-occupation list. Ask Northern Care Alliance NHS Foundation Trust what the duties actually are.
