A activity leader already meets 70% of what the outdoor activities coordinator role asks for. The move turns on 2 required skills not yet in the profile.
70%
34.4/ 100
1 Share of the outdoor activities coordinator role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the activity leader profile. Required skills count in full, supplementary skills at 0.35. Directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. 2 Combines what is missing with how specialised it is, so a gap of general skills scores easier than the same number of narrow ones.
Why this move works
A outdoor activities coordinator role treats 15 of its required skills as things a activity leader already does. These are the ones it depends on most.
- animate in the outdoors
- assess risk in the outdoors
- communicate in an outdoor setting
- empathise with outdoor groups
- evaluate outdoor activities
- give feedback on changing circumstances
What stands in the way is 2 required skills the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.
Table 2 · What you already bring
Of the 16 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A outdoor activities coordinator role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a activity leader background worth leading with.
- already held assess risk in the outdoors information skills
- already held empathise with outdoor groups management skills
- already held give feedback on changing circumstances communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held react acordingly to unexpected events outdoors communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held research areas for outdoor activity information skills
- already held evaluate outdoor activities information skills
All 16 carried skills, including the 15 the outdoor activities coordinator role treats as required.

How this record was compiled
Both occupations are taken from ESCO, which lists the skills and knowledge each occupation is expected to have and marks every one required or optional. Nothing here is a prediction about hiring, and nothing here knows that a particular employer wants a particular certificate. Treat Table 3 as a starting point for your own research rather than a syllabus. The full method states what these figures can and cannot tell you.
