1 Share of the domestic electrician role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the electrical 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.

Why

Why this move works

A domestic electrician role treats 15 of its required skills as things a electrical supervisor already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • building systems monitoring technology
  • electrical wiring plans
  • electricity
  • follow health and safety procedures in construction
  • inspect electrical supplies
  • install electric switches

What stands in the way is 4 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 29 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A domestic electrician role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a electrical supervisor background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held install electricity sockets working with machinery and specialised equipment
  • already held solar panel mounting systems engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held install electric switches working with machinery and specialised equipment
  • already held install circuit breakers working with machinery and specialised equipment
  • already held building systems monitoring technology engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held splice cable working with machinery and specialised equipment

All 29 carried skills, including the 15 the domestic electrician role treats as required.

Table 3

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 13 missing skills fall into 5 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.

2 gaps that are knowledge rather than practice

Knowledge gaps usually close through study. Practical skill gaps usually need something you can point at.

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.
