I don't think this counts as a 'professional person'.

Manager can be countersignatory, provided company is Vat Registered.

Just Ask Branch manager that his company is Vat registered. if yes than its ok. ( In Case Home office wants to verify Countersignatory, they will ask your countersignatory to reply on Company headed letter.)

Although the requirements are similar, I believe the OP is referring to a naturalisation application and not a passport application.
