29%
68.9/ 100
1 Share of the international forwarding operations coordinator role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the customs and excise officer 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 this move works
A international forwarding operations coordinator role treats 5 of its required skills as things a customs and excise officer already does. These are the ones it depends on most.
- control trade commercial documentation
- coordinate import transportation activities
- international business
- manage import export licenses
- write work-related reports
What stands in the way is 12 required skills the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.
Table 2 · What you already bring
Of the 6 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A international forwarding operations coordinator role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a customs and excise officer background worth leading with.

- already held coordinate import transportation activities management skills
- already held control trade commercial documentation assisting and caring
- already held international business business, administration and law
- already held write work-related reports communication, collaboration and creativity

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.
