1 Share of the botanist role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the lottery 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.

Table 2

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 12 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A botanist role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a lottery manager background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held schedule recreation facilities management skills
  • already held promote recreation activities communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held recreation activities services
  • already held manage logistics management skills
  • already held represent the organisation communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held set organisational policies management skills

All 12 carried skills, including the 12 the botanist role treats as required.

Each entry opens a course search for that skill. Career Overlap earns nothing from these links.

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.
