SOC 1136 (80% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £52,900, and Nottinghamshire County Council 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 3571 (Human resources and industrial relations officers, Recruitment focus with specialist advisory work could be HR officer). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
