1 Share of the aquaculture site supervisor role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the aquaculture hatchery manager 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

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 11 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A aquaculture site supervisor role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a aquaculture hatchery manager background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held supervise aquaculture facilities management skills
  • already held inspect aquaculture equipment information skills
  • already held develop aquaculture strategies management skills
  • already held develop management plans to reduce risks in aquaculture information skills
  • already held provide on-site training in aquaculture facilities communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held control aquatic production environment handling and moving

All 11 carried skills, including the 9 the aquaculture site supervisor role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 19 missing skills fall into 8 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, numbered below in the order worth working in: the areas carrying the most required skills come first, and inside each one the required skills sit above the supplementary ones.

8 gaps that are knowledge rather than practice

Knowledge gaps usually close through study. Practical skill gaps usually need something you can point at.

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.
