Environmental programme coordinator to aquaculture environmental analyst
An environmental programme coordinator already meets 39% of what the aquaculture environmental analyst role asks for. The move turns on 16 required skills not yet in the profile.
68.2/ 100
1 How much of what an aquaculture environmental analyst is expected to do is already part of an environmental programme coordinator’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 aquaculture environmental analyst role is recorded as needing, required and optional together. What these numbers mean.
Why this move works
An aquaculture environmental analyst role treats 12 of its required skills as things an environmental programme coordinator already does. You would walk in with these on day one.
- analyse environmental data
- assess environmental impact
- carry out environmental audits
- carry out training in environmental matters
- develop environmental policy
- ecology
What stands in the way is 16 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 15 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. An aquaculture environmental analyst role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of an environmental programme coordinator background worth leading with.
- already held perform environmental investigations information skills
- already held carry out training in environmental matters communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held ecosystem management business, administration and law
- already held environmental design engineering, manufacturing and construction
- already held carry out environmental audits assisting and caring
- already held report on environmental issues communication, collaboration and creativity
All 15 carried skills, including the 12 the aquaculture environmental analyst role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you may need to learn
The 29 missing skills fall into 11 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.
