51.1/ 100

1 Share of the airport environment officer role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the airport chief executive 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 airport environment officer role treats 6 of its required skills as things a airport chief executive already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • airport environmental regulations
  • apply airport standards and regulations
  • conduct airport environmental studies
  • coordinate airport environmental policies
  • identify airport safety hazards
  • write work-related reports

What stands in the way is 7 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 7 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A airport environment officer role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a airport chief executive background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held conduct airport environmental studies information skills
  • already held coordinate airport environmental policies management skills
  • already held airport environmental regulations engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held identify airport safety hazards information skills
  • already held apply airport standards and regulations assisting and caring
  • already held write work-related reports communication, collaboration and creativity

All 7 carried skills, including the 6 the airport environment officer role treats as required.

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.
