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

Why

Why this move works

A aquaculture site supervisor role treats 5 of its required skills as things a aquaculture mooring manager already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • design principles of containment systems
  • effect of water currents
  • ensure aquaculture personnel health and safety
  • fish identification and classification
  • fishing industry

What stands in the way is 15 required skills the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.

Table 2

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 8 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 mooring manager background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held design principles of containment systems agriculture, forestry, fisheries and veterinary
  • already held effect of water currents agriculture, forestry, fisheries and veterinary
  • already held operate small craft working with machinery and specialised equipment
  • already held ensure aquaculture personnel health and safety assisting and caring
  • already held work in inclement conditions assisting and caring
  • already held fishing industry agriculture, forestry, fisheries and veterinary

All 8 carried skills, including the 5 the aquaculture site supervisor role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 22 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.

6 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.
