1 Share of the vessel assembly supervisor role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the aircraft assembly 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 vessel assembly supervisor role treats 16 of its required skills as things a aircraft assembly supervisor already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • analyse the need for technical resources
  • coordinate communication within a team
  • create solutions to problems
  • electromechanics
  • evaluate employees work
  • keep records of work progress

What stands in the way is 2 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 37 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A vessel assembly supervisor role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a aircraft assembly supervisor background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held tend CNC metal punch press working with computers
  • already held tend CNC drilling machine working with computers
  • already held tend CNC grinding machine working with computers
  • already held tend CNC laser cutting machine working with computers
  • already held tend CNC milling machine working with computers
  • already held tend computer numerical control lathe machine working with computers

All 37 carried skills, including the 16 the vessel assembly supervisor role treats as required.

Table 3

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 17 missing skills fall into 8 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.

7 gaps that are knowledge rather than practice

Knowledge gaps usually close through study. Practical skill gaps usually need something you can point at.

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.
