The Skilled Worker visa covers most professional roles, such as water engineer, environmental scientist or treatment plant manager. You need a licensed sponsor and a job that meets the skill and salary level set for its occupation.
Water, wastewater and environmental engineering roles generally sit at the skill level the Skilled Worker route needs, and several count as harder-to-fill occupations. Frontline collection and operative jobs usually fall below the threshold, so eligibility follows the specific occupation code.
