31.6/ 100

1 Share of the water conservation technician supervisor role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the structural ironwork 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 water conservation technician supervisor role treats 18 of its required skills as things a structural ironwork supervisor already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • answer requests for quotation
  • ensure compliance with construction project deadline
  • ensure equipment availability
  • evaluate employees work
  • follow health and safety procedures in construction
  • inspect construction supplies

What stands in the way is 3 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 29 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A water conservation technician supervisor role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a structural ironwork supervisor background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held apply spot welding techniques constructing
  • already held apply arc welding techniques constructing
  • already held ensure compliance with construction project deadline management skills
  • already held construction product regulation business, administration and law
  • already held negotiate supplier arrangements communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held order construction supplies communication, collaboration and creativity

All 29 carried skills, including the 18 the water conservation technician supervisor role treats as required.

Table 3

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 15 missing skills fall into 5 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.

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.
