1 Share of the baggage flow supervisor 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 baggage flow supervisor role treats 6 of its required skills as things a airport chief executive already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • airport safety regulations
  • apply airport standards and regulations
  • identify airport safety hazards
  • monitor airport service performance
  • report airport security incidents
  • write work-related reports

What stands in the way is 11 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 11 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A baggage flow supervisor 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 monitor airport service performance information skills
  • already held implement airport emergency plans communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held report airport security incidents information skills
  • already held implement improvements in airport operations communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held interact with airport stakeholders communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held provide assistance to airport users communication, collaboration and creativity

All 11 carried skills, including the 6 the baggage flow supervisor 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.
