1 Share of the dismantling supervisor role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the construction general 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.

Table 2

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 20 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A dismantling supervisor role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a construction general supervisor background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held prepare site for construction constructing
  • already held coordinate construction activities communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held follow nuclear plant safety precautions assisting and caring
  • already held nuclear energy engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held radiation protection health and welfare
  • already held ensure compliance with construction project deadline management skills

All 20 carried skills, including the 14 the dismantling supervisor role treats as required.

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.
