1 Share of the child day care centre manager role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the rescue centre 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.

Why

Why this move works

A child day care centre manager role treats 61 of its required skills as things a rescue centre manager already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • accept own accountability
  • address problems critically
  • adhere to organisational guidelines
  • advocate for others
  • advocate for social service users
  • analyse community needs

What stands in the way is 11 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 66 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A child day care centre manager role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a rescue centre manager background worth leading with.

  • already held evaluate staff performance in social work management skills

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.
