Aquaculture hatchery manager to aquaculture harvesting manager
An aquaculture hatchery manager already meets 28% of what the aquaculture harvesting manager role asks for. The move turns on 24 required skills not yet in the profile.
79.5/ 100
1 How much of what an aquaculture harvesting manager is expected to do is already part of an aquaculture hatchery manager’s work. Directional: the figure for the reverse move differs, because moving into a speciality is not the same problem as moving out of one. 2 Every skill the aquaculture harvesting manager role is recorded as needing, required and optional together. What these numbers mean.
Why this move works
An aquaculture harvesting manager role treats 10 of its required skills as things an aquaculture hatchery manager already does. You would walk in with these on day one.
- animal welfare legislation
- biosecurity
- control aquatic production environment
- develop management plans to reduce risks in aquaculture
- ensure aquaculture personnel health and safety
- fish anatomy
What stands in the way is 24 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 13 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. An aquaculture harvesting manager role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of an aquaculture hatchery manager background worth leading with.
- already held inspect aquaculture equipment information skills
- already held develop management plans to reduce risks in aquaculture information skills
- already held control aquatic production environment handling and moving
- already held ensure aquaculture personnel health and safety assisting and caring
- already held screen live fish deformities handling and moving
- already held work in inclement conditions assisting and caring
All 13 carried skills, including the 10 the aquaculture harvesting manager role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you may need to learn
The 38 missing skills fall into 8 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, numbered in the order worth working in. Areas carrying the most required skills come first, and inside each one the required skills sit above the optional ones. Nothing here is a verdict on you: it is a list of what this particular job asks for that your current one does not.

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.
