HI Drew,
As you are using the Cloud-based Endpoint , that would mean that you have installed from Sophos Central . Please refer the Steps to disable Tamper protection .
Note : After updating the policy on Sophos Central . Make sure you update Cloud-based Endpoint installed . So it would fetch the updated policy and proceed with uninstallation.

Hey, Aditya
I guess i jumped the gun, sorry but this didn't help. General settings don't show hence not possible to go on with the procedures. (disabling from sophos central)
