1 Share of the environmental expert role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the ICT environmental manager 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 environmental expert role treats 7 of its required skills as things a ICT environmental manager already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • analyse environmental data
  • carry out environmental audits
  • conduct environmental surveys
  • develop environmental policy
  • environmental management standards
  • report on environmental issues

What stands in the way is 23 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 8 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A environmental expert role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a ICT environmental manager background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held environmental management standards engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held resource-efficient technologies engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held conduct environmental surveys information skills
  • already held carry out environmental audits assisting and caring
  • already held report on environmental issues communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held develop environmental policy management skills

All 8 carried skills, including the 7 the environmental expert role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 41 missing skills fall into 11 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.

17 gaps that are knowledge rather than practice

Knowledge gaps usually close through study. Practical skill gaps usually need something you can point at.

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.
