Green coffee coordinator to extract mixer tester
A green coffee coordinator already meets 31% of what the extract mixer tester role asks for. The move turns on 9 required skills not yet in the profile.
64.6/ 100
1 How much of what an extract mixer tester is expected to do is already part of a green coffee 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 extract mixer tester role is recorded as needing, required and optional together. What these numbers mean.
Why this move works
An extract mixer tester role treats 4 of its required skills as things a green coffee coordinator already does. You would walk in with these on day one.
- apply GMP
- apply HACCP
- apply requirements concerning manufacturing of food and beverages
- ensure public safety and security
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 · What you already bring
Of the 7 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. An extract mixer tester role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a green coffee coordinator background worth leading with.
- already held work in a food processing team communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held ensure public safety and security assisting and caring
- already held apply GMP assisting and caring
- already held apply HACCP assisting and caring
- already held apply requirements concerning manufacturing of food and beverages assisting and caring
- already held liaise with colleagues communication, collaboration and creativity
All 7 carried skills, including the 4 the extract mixer tester role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you may need to learn
The 16 missing skills fall into 8 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.

- still to learn operate sieves for spices required

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.
