A horse riding instructor already meets 75% of what the tennis coach role asks for. The move turns on 2 required skills not yet in the profile.
75%
27.8/ 100
1 Share of the tennis coach role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the horse riding instructor 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 this move works
A tennis coach role treats 10 of its required skills as things a horse riding instructor already does. These are the ones it depends on most.
- apply risk management in sports
- assess performance in sport events
- cooperate with colleagues
- demonstrate professional attitude to clients
- instruct in sport
- maintain customer service
What stands in the way is 2 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 16 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A tennis coach role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a horse riding instructor background worth leading with.
- already held organise sporting environment management skills
- already held promote balance between rest and activity management skills
- already held assess performance in sport events management skills
- already held demonstrate professional attitude to clients communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held plan sports instruction programme management skills
- already held work with different target groups communication, collaboration and creativity
All 16 carried skills, including the 10 the tennis coach role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you would need to learn
The 8 missing skills fall into 4 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, numbered below in the order worth working in: the areas carrying the most required skills come first, and inside each one the required skills sit above the supplementary ones.
- required, not held personalise sports programme required
- optional, not held contribute to the development of a sporting estate optional
- optional, not held manage athletes optional
- optional, not held assess students optional
- required, not held tennis required

Each entry opens a course search for that skill. Career Overlap earns nothing from these links.

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.
