1 Share of the agronomic crop production team leader role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the land-based machinery supervisor 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 agronomic crop production team leader role treats 7 of its required skills as things a land-based machinery supervisor already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • assign duties to agriculture workers
  • crop production principles
  • harvest crop
  • maintain technical equipment
  • operate agricultural machinery
  • pest control in plants

What stands in the way is 29 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 agronomic crop production team leader role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a land-based machinery supervisor background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held assign duties to agriculture workers management skills
  • already held maintain technical equipment information skills
  • already held operate agricultural machinery working with machinery and specialised equipment
  • already held harvest crop handling and moving
  • already held soil structure agriculture, forestry, fisheries and veterinary
  • already held crop production principles agriculture, forestry, fisheries and veterinary

All 8 carried skills, including the 7 the agronomic crop production team leader role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 48 missing skills fall into 12 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.

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.
