32.1/ 100

1 Share of the finished leather warehouse manager role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the raw materials warehouse specialist 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 finished leather warehouse manager role treats 13 of its required skills as things a raw materials warehouse specialist already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • create solutions to problems
  • execute working instructions
  • health and safety in the workplace
  • identify defects on raw hides
  • identify software for warehouse management
  • identify with the company's goals

What stands in the way is 4 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 17 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A finished leather warehouse manager role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a raw materials warehouse specialist background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held identify software for warehouse management working with computers

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.
