Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed primarily in a managerial capacity. Despite providing a lengthy list of duties, supporting documentation such as client invoices showed the beneficiary was heavily involved in performing the same non-qualifying operational tasks as his colleagues, and the petitioner did not provide sufficient specific evidence to substantiate the claimed high-level managerial responsibilities.
