Corporate social responsibility manager to employee volunteering programme coordinator
A corporate social responsibility manager already meets 21% of what the employee volunteering programme coordinator role asks for. The move turns on 14 required skills not yet in the profile.
72.3/ 100
1 How much of what an employee volunteering programme coordinator is expected to do is already part of a corporate social responsibility manager’s work. Directional: the figure for the reverse move differs, because moving into a speciality is not the same problem as moving out of one. 2 Every skill the employee volunteering programme coordinator role is recorded as needing, required and optional together. What these numbers mean.
Why this move works
An employee volunteering programme coordinator role treats 3 of its required skills as things a corporate social responsibility manager already does. You would walk in with these on day one.
- corporate social responsibility
- project management
- promote inclusion
What stands in the way is 14 required skills the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.
Table 2 · What you already bring
Of the 6 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. An employee volunteering programme coordinator role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a corporate social responsibility manager background worth leading with.
- already held monitor social impact information skills
- already held sustainable development goals social sciences, journalism and information
- already held data analytics information and communication technologies (icts)
- already held corporate social responsibility business, administration and law
- already held promote inclusion assisting and caring
- already held project management business, administration and law
All 6 carried skills, including the 3 the employee volunteering programme coordinator role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you may need to learn
The 18 missing skills fall into 8 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, numbered in the order worth working in. Areas carrying the most required skills come first, and inside each one the required skills sit above the optional ones. Nothing here is a verdict on you: it is a list of what this particular job asks for that your current one does not.

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.
