SOC 3114 (72% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £41,700, and BMD Group is a licensed sponsor. That is our reading of the rules. Whether they issue a Certificate of Sponsorship is still their call.
Worth checking: this could also be SOC 3582 (Health and safety managers and officers, If safety compliance and stop-work authority were the primary focus rather than engineering coordination.), which is not on the eligible-occupation list. Ask BMD Group what the duties actually are.
