1 Share of the volunteer manager role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the employee volunteering programme coordinator 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 · What you already bring

Of the 20 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A volunteer manager role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a employee volunteering programme coordinator background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held humanitarian aid social sciences, journalism and information
  • already held capacity building education
  • already held create social alliances communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held validation of learning acquired through volunteering education
  • already held monitor social impact information skills
  • already held sustainable development goals social sciences, journalism and information

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.
