1 Share of the investment clerk role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the education administrator 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 investment clerk role treats 9 of its required skills as things a education administrator already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • customer service
  • electronic communication
  • handle financial transactions
  • handle mail
  • maintain records of financial transactions
  • office software

What stands in the way is 10 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 investment clerk role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a education administrator background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held handle mail management skills
  • already held deliver correspondence management skills
  • already held use office systems management skills
  • already held electronic communication engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held office software information and communication technologies (icts)
  • already held maintain records of financial transactions information skills

All 12 carried skills, including the 9 the investment clerk role treats as required.

Each entry opens a course search for that skill. Career Overlap earns nothing from these links.

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.
