Who you can sponsor in SOC code 4129
This is a job below degree level (RQF 3 to 5). Since 22 July 2025 such jobs can only be sponsored for new hires while they appear on a list: here, the temporary shortage list.
The list does not cover every job in the code: only Box office assistants, Grants officers, Mortgage administrators, Revenue assistants (excludes National and Local government revenue occupations), Treasury assistants. A role outside that wording counts as a transitional job, open only to workers already sponsored in it before 22 July 2025.
After 31 December 2026 a certificate can no longer be assigned on the list. Workers you already sponsor in this code can still extend with you.
