1 Share of the door supervisor role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the hand luggage inspector 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 door supervisor role treats 11 of its required skills as things a hand luggage inspector already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • check tickets at venue entry
  • comply with the principles of self-defence
  • deal with aggressive behaviour
  • detain offenders
  • ensure public safety and security
  • identify security threats

What stands in the way is 5 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 16 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A door supervisor role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a hand luggage inspector background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held perform body searches assisting and caring
  • already held perform security checks assisting and caring
  • already held check tickets at venue entry assisting and caring
  • already held assist police investigations communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held illegal substances services
  • already held comply with the principles of self-defence assisting and caring

All 16 carried skills, including the 11 the door supervisor 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.
