A weaving machine operator already meets 75% of what the weaving machine supervisor role asks for. The move turns on 1 required skill not yet in the profile.
75%
23.1/ 100
1 Share of the weaving machine supervisor role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the weaving machine operator 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 this move works
A weaving machine supervisor role treats 8 of its required skills as things a weaving machine operator already does. These are the ones it depends on most.
- control textile process
- evaluate textile characteristics
- maintain work standards
- manufacture textile floor coverings
- manufacture woven fabrics
- properties of textile materials
What stands in the way is 1 required skill the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.
Table 2 · What you already bring
Of the 9 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A weaving machine supervisor role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a weaving machine operator background worth leading with.
- already held manufacture textile floor coverings working with machinery and specialised equipment
- already held tend weaving machines working with machinery and specialised equipment
- already held manufacture woven fabrics working with machinery and specialised equipment
- already held use weaving machine technologies working with machinery and specialised equipment
- already held evaluate textile characteristics information skills
- already held maintain work standards information skills
All 9 carried skills, including the 8 the weaving machine supervisor role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you would need to learn
The 6 missing skills fall into 4 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.
- required, not held measure yarn count required
- optional, not held conduct textile testing operations optional
- optional, not held manufacture braided products optional
- optional, not held use warp preparation technologies optional
- optional, not held manufacturing of fur products optional
- optional, not held use textile technique for hand-made products optional

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.
