1 Share of the tent installer role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the fight director 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 tent installer role treats 3 of its required skills as things a fight director already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • use personal protection equipment
  • work ergonomically
  • work with respect for own safety

What stands in the way is 9 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 5 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A tent installer role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a fight director background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held write risk assessment on performing arts production information skills
  • already held work with respect for own safety assisting and caring
  • already held use personal protection equipment assisting and caring
  • already held manage personal professional development management skills
  • already held work ergonomically assisting and caring

All 5 carried skills, including the 3 the tent installer role treats as required.

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.
