1 Share of the aquaculture husbandry manager role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the aquaculture recirculation 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 husbandry manager role treats 10 of its required skills as things a aquaculture recirculation manager already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • develop fish health and welfare management plans
  • ensure aquaculture personnel health and safety
  • fish biology
  • fish grading
  • fish harvesting methods
  • fish welfare regulations

What stands in the way is 29 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 17 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A aquaculture husbandry manager role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a aquaculture recirculation manager background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held develop fish health and welfare management plans management skills
  • already held fish harvesting methods agriculture, forestry, fisheries and veterinary
  • already held implement fin fish feeding regimes handling and moving
  • already held fish grading agriculture, forestry, fisheries and veterinary
  • already held conduct fish mortality studies information skills
  • already held fish welfare regulations agriculture, forestry, fisheries and veterinary

All 17 carried skills, including the 10 the aquaculture husbandry manager role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 43 missing skills fall into 12 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.

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.
