1 Share of the aquaculture environmental analyst role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the environmental 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.

Why

Why this move works

A aquaculture environmental analyst role treats 12 of its required skills as things a environmental programme coordinator already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • analyse environmental data
  • assess environmental impact
  • carry out environmental audits
  • carry out training in environmental matters
  • develop environmental policy
  • ecology

What stands in the way is 16 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 15 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A aquaculture environmental analyst role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a environmental programme coordinator background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held perform environmental investigations information skills
  • already held carry out training in environmental matters communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held ecosystem management business, administration and law
  • already held environmental design engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held carry out environmental audits assisting and caring
  • already held report on environmental issues communication, collaboration and creativity

All 15 carried skills, including the 12 the aquaculture environmental analyst role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 29 missing skills fall into 11 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, numbered below in the order worth working in: the areas carrying the most required skills come first, and inside each one the required skills sit above the supplementary ones.

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.
