Yes, and it is a career change move. A corporate social responsibility manager already covers 21% of what an environmental protection manager is expected to do: 8 skills carry over, 7 of which the environmental protection manager role treats as required.

19 required skills are missing, plus 24 optional ones. They fall into 11 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, led by communication, collaboration and creativity. The single most important is environmental threats.

Its learning distance is 80.8 out of 100, which is the career change band. That accounts for both how much is missing and how specialised those skills are.
