1 Share of the ground lighting officer role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the aircraft cargo operations coordinator 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.

Table 2

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 6 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A ground lighting officer role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a aircraft cargo operations coordinator background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held follow airport safety procedures assisting and caring
  • already held identify airport safety hazards information skills
  • already held apply airport standards and regulations assisting and caring
  • already held work in an aviation team communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held give instructions to staff communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held manage staff management skills

All 6 carried skills, including the 5 the ground lighting officer role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

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.
