69.6/ 100
1 How much of what a camping ground manager is expected to do is already part of a hospitality establishment security officer’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 camping ground manager role is recorded as needing, required and optional together. What these numbers mean.
Why this move works

- ensure cross-department cooperation
- handle customer complaints
- manage budgets
- manage health and safety standards
- manage staff
What stands in the way is 15 required skills the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.

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.
