1 Share of the recreational facilities manager role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the betting 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 recreational facilities manager role treats 8 of its required skills as things a betting manager already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

manage budgets
manage logistics
manage recreational facility
recreation activities
represent the organisation
schedule recreation facilities

What stands in the way is 6 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 recreational facilities manager role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a betting manager background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area

already held manage recreational facility management skills
already held schedule recreation facilities management skills
already held recreation activities services
already held supervise daily information operations management skills
already held manage logistics management skills
already held represent the organisation communication, collaboration and creativity

All 17 carried skills, including the 8 the recreational facilities 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.
