1 Share of the aquaculture harvesting manager role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the aquaculture harvesting worker 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.

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 20 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A aquaculture harvesting manager role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a aquaculture harvesting worker background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held maintain fish harvesting equipment constructing
  • already held handle fish harvesting waste handling and moving
  • already held transport fish handling and moving
  • already held apply fish harvest methods handling and moving
  • already held handle harvested fish handling and moving
  • already held fish harvesting methods agriculture, forestry, fisheries and veterinary

All 20 carried skills, including the 10 the aquaculture harvesting manager 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.
