1 Share of the ICT resilience manager role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the cybersecurity risk 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.

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 ICT resilience manager role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a cybersecurity risk manager background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area

already held lead disaster recovery exercises management skills
already held manage disaster recovery plans management skills
already held define security policies management skills
already held ICT recovery techniques information and communication technologies (icts)
already held ICT safety working with computers
already held ethical hacking principles information and communication technologies (icts)

All 20 carried skills, including the 12 the ICT resilience manager 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.
