dredging supervisortodemolition supervisor
A dredging supervisor already meets 61% of what the demolition supervisor role asks for. The move turns on 6 required skills not yet in the profile.
This move: 46.7 of 100 · moderate
1 Share of the demolition supervisor role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the dredging supervisor 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 · What you already bring
Of the 27 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A demolition supervisor role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a dredging supervisor background worth leading with.
- already held plan resource allocation management skills
- already held operate excavator working with machinery and specialised equipment
- already held coordinate construction activities communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held excavation techniques engineering, manufacturing and construction
- already held prevent damage to utility infrastructure management skills
- already held ensure compliance with construction project deadline management skills
All 27 carried skills, including the 15 the demolition supervisor role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you would need to learn
The 24 missing skills fall into 9 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.

Table 4 · Where to start
The 3 entries a demolition supervisor role is least likely to hire without. The ordering is computed from the skill data, not from what pays.
- 01 demolition techniques knowledge · sector specific
- 02 guide operation of heavy construction equipment skill · sector specific
- 03 recognise the hazards of dangerous goods skill · sector specific
Each entry opens a course search for that skill. Career Overlap earns nothing from these links.

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.
