1 Share of the aquaculture mooring manager role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the aquaculture recirculation technician 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 12 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A aquaculture mooring manager role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a aquaculture recirculation technician background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area

already held participate in the organisation of emergency drills management skills
already held draw up risk assessment information skills
already held fish welfare regulations agriculture, forestry, fisheries and veterinary
already held ensure aquaculture personnel health and safety assisting and caring
already held maintain internal communication systems communication, collaboration and creativity
already held make time-critical decisions management skills

All 12 carried skills, including the 10 the aquaculture mooring manager role treats as required.

Note

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.
