Lift installation supervisor to terrazzo setter supervisor
A lift installation supervisor already meets 60% of what the terrazzo setter supervisor role asks for. The move turns on 5 required skills not yet in the profile.
45.5/ 100
1 How much of what a terrazzo setter supervisor is expected to do is already part of a lift installation supervisor’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 terrazzo setter supervisor role is recorded as needing, required and optional together. What these numbers mean.
Why this move works
A terrazzo setter supervisor role treats 13 of its required skills as things a lift installation supervisor already does. You would walk in with these on day one.
- answer requests for quotation
- ensure compliance with construction project deadline
- evaluate employees work
- follow health and safety procedures in construction
- inspect construction supplies
- liaise with managers
What stands in the way is 5 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 23 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A terrazzo setter supervisor role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a lift installation supervisor background worth leading with.
- already held ensure compliance with construction project deadline management skills
- already held construction product regulation business, administration and law
- already held negotiate supplier arrangements communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held order construction supplies communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held calculate needs for construction supplies information skills
- already held evaluate employees work management skills
All 23 carried skills, including the 13 the terrazzo setter supervisor role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you may need to learn
The 22 missing skills fall into 7 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, numbered in the order worth working in. Areas carrying the most required skills come first, and inside each one the required skills sit above the optional ones. Nothing here is a verdict on you: it is a list of what this particular job asks for that your current one does not.

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.
