1 Share of the terrazzo setter supervisor role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the construction quality manager 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 terrazzo setter supervisor role treats 9 of its required skills as things a construction quality manager already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • advise on construction materials
  • check compatibility of materials
  • evaluate employees work
  • follow health and safety procedures in construction
  • inspect construction supplies
  • keep records of work progress

What stands in the way is 9 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 12 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A terrazzo setter supervisor role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a construction quality manager background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held check compatibility of materials information skills
  • already held construction product regulation business, administration and law
  • already held advise on construction materials communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held evaluate employees work management skills
  • already held inspect construction supplies information skills
  • already held work in a construction team communication, collaboration and creativity

All 12 carried skills, including the 9 the terrazzo setter 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.
