A jeweller already meets 72% of what the filigree maker role asks for. The move turns on 7 required skills not yet in the profile.
72%
32.4/ 100
1 Share of the filigree maker role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the jeweller 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 filigree maker role treats 12 of its required skills as things a jeweller already does. These are the ones it depends on most.
- adjust jewellery
- clean jewellery pieces
- create jewellery
- ensure conformance to jewel design specifications
- heat jewellery metals
- jewellery processes
What stands in the way is 7 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 31 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A filigree maker role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a jeweller background worth leading with.
- already held perform wire wrapping handling and moving
- already held perform enamelling constructing
- already held perform damascening communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held cast jewellery metal handling and moving
- already held maintain jewels and watches handling and moving
- already held mount stones in jewels handling and moving
All 31 carried skills, including the 12 the filigree maker 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 operate soldering equipment required
- required, not held operate welding equipment required
- required, not held perform metal work required
- required, not held mark designs on metal pieces required
- required, not held smoothen rough jewel parts required
- required, not held use precision tools required
- required, not held apply precision metalworking techniques required
- optional, not held watches and jewellery products optional
Table 4 · Where to start
The 3 entries a filigree maker role is least likely to hire without. The ordering is computed from the skill data, not from what pays.
- 01 mark designs on metal pieces skill · sector specific
- 02 smoothen rough jewel parts skill · sector specific
- 03 apply precision metalworking techniques skill · cross sector
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.
