1 Share of the pipeline environmental project manager role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the pipeline compliance coordinator 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 pipeline environmental project manager role treats 7 of its required skills as things a pipeline compliance coordinator already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • analyse work-related written reports
  • apply company policies
  • apply health and safety standards
  • combine multiple fields of knowledge
  • detect flaws in pipeline infrastructure
  • ensure regulatory compliance in pipeline infrastructures

What stands in the way is 9 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 10 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A pipeline environmental project manager role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a pipeline compliance coordinator background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held advise on archaeological sites communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held combine multiple fields of knowledge information skills
  • already held security requirements of goods transported via pipelines services
  • already held pipeline coating properties engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held comply with pipeline transport regulations assisting and caring
  • already held detect flaws in pipeline infrastructure constructing

All 10 carried skills, including the 7 the pipeline environmental project manager role treats as required.

4 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.
