environmental engineertoenvironmental mining engineer
A environmental engineer already meets 48% of what the environmental mining engineer role asks for. The move turns on 11 required skills not yet in the profile.
48%
53.6/ 100
1 Share of the environmental mining engineer role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the environmental engineer 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 this move works
A environmental mining engineer role treats 11 of its required skills as things a environmental engineer already does. These are the ones it depends on most.
- adjust engineering designs
- approve engineering design
- chemistry
- civil engineering
- engineering principles
- engineering processes
What stands in the way is 11 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 12 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A environmental mining engineer role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a environmental engineer background worth leading with.
- already held mining, construction and civil engineering machinery products engineering, manufacturing and construction
- already held civil engineering engineering, manufacturing and construction
- already held ensure compliance with safety legislation assisting and caring
- already held biology natural sciences, mathematics and statistics
- already held approve engineering design communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held chemistry natural sciences, mathematics and statistics
All 12 carried skills, including the 11 the environmental mining engineer role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you would need to learn
The 15 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.
- required, not held communicate on minerals issues required
- required, not held communicate on the environmental impact of mining required
- required, not held address problems critically required
- required, not held prepare scientific reports required
- required, not held troubleshoot required
- optional, not held negotiate with stakeholders optional
- optional, not held present reports optional
- required, not held assess environmental impact required
- required, not held ensure compliance with environmental legislation required
- required, not held manage environmental impact required
- required, not held develop environmental policy required
- required, not held supervise staff required
- optional, not held develop mine rehabilitation plan optional
- required, not held maintain records of mining operations required
- optional, not held impact of meteorological phenomena on mining operations optional
Table 4 · Where to start
The 3 entries a environmental mining engineer role is least likely to hire without. The ordering is computed from the skill data, not from what pays.
- 01 communicate on minerals issues skill · sector specific
- 02 communicate on the environmental impact of mining skill · sector specific
- 03 maintain records of mining operations 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.
