What these numbers mean.
Why this move works
A leather production planner role treats 10 of its required skills as things a finished leather warehouse manager already does. You would walk in with these on day one.

Table 2 · What you already bring
Of the 18 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A leather production planner role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a finished leather warehouse manager background worth leading with.

Table 3 · What you may need to learn
The 6 missing skills fall into 3 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.
