65%
35.3/ 100
1 Share of the postman/postwoman role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the motorcycle delivery person 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 postman/postwoman role treats 11 of its required skills as things a motorcycle delivery person already does. These are the ones it depends on most.
- act reliably
- analyse travel alternatives
- data protection
- differentiate types of packages
- ensure the integrity of mail
- establish daily priorities
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 14 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A postman/postwoman role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a motorcycle delivery person background worth leading with.
- already held ensure the integrity of mail handling and moving
- already held organise mail deliveries management skills
- already held differentiate types of packages handling and moving
- already held drive two-wheeled vehicles working with machinery and specialised equipment
- already held analyse travel alternatives information skills
- already held drive in urban areas working with machinery and specialised equipment
All 14 carried skills, including the 11 the postman/postwoman role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you would need to learn
The 9 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 implement environmental protection measures required
- required, not held maintain privacy of service users required
- optional, not held apply information security policies optional
- optional, not held secure sensitive customer's information optional
- required, not held execute working instructions required
- optional, not held contact customers optional

Table 4 · Where to start
The 3 entries a postman/postwoman role is least likely to hire without. The ordering is computed from the skill data, not from what pays.
- 01 handle mail skill · sector specific
- 02 operate mailing information systems skill · sector specific
- 03 execute working instructions 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.
