46.2/ 100

1 Share of the bank manager role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the financial manager 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 bank manager role treats 22 of its required skills as things a financial manager already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • accounting techniques
  • align efforts towards business development
  • analyse business plans
  • analyse financial performance of a company
  • analyse financial risk
  • analyse market financial trends

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 32 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A bank manager role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a financial manager background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held report on overall management of a business communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held advise on investment communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held ensure compliance with company regulations assisting and caring
  • already held offer financial services communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held business loans business, administration and law
  • already held align efforts towards business development communication, collaboration and creativity

All 32 carried skills, including the 22 the bank manager role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

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.
