1 Share of the equality and inclusion manager role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the labour relations officer 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 equality and inclusion manager role treats 10 of its required skills as things a labour relations officer already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • advise on conflict management
  • advise on organisational culture
  • build trust
  • ensure gender equality in the workplace
  • gather feedback from employees
  • monitor organisation climate

What stands in the way is 25 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 17 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A equality and inclusion manager role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a labour relations officer background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held monitor organisation climate information skills
  • already held advise on organisational culture communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held ensure gender equality in the workplace assisting and caring
  • already held support employability of people with disabilities management skills
  • already held protect employee rights communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held personnel management business, administration and law

All 17 carried skills, including the 10 the equality and inclusion manager role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 39 missing skills fall into 6 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.

5 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.
