1 Share of the filament winding operator role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the plastic and rubber products manufacturing 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 filament winding operator role treats 7 of its required skills as things a plastic and rubber products manufacturing supervisor already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • coating substances
  • consult technical resources
  • control temperature
  • monitor gauge
  • monitor processing environment conditions
  • optimise production processes parameters

What stands in the way is 7 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 19 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A filament winding operator role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a plastic and rubber products manufacturing supervisor background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held synthetic resins engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held polymerisation natural sciences, mathematics and statistics
  • already held monitor processing environment conditions information skills
  • already held control production flow remotely working with computers
  • already held coating substances engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held plastic resins natural sciences, mathematics and statistics

All 19 carried skills, including the 7 the filament winding operator role treats as required.

Table 3

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 12 missing skills fall into 6 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.

3 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.
