fisheries boatmastertofisheries engineering technician
A fisheries boatmaster already meets 42% of what the fisheries engineering technician role asks for. The move turns on 13 required skills not yet in the profile.
42%
59.6/ 100
1 Share of the fisheries engineering technician role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the fisheries boatmaster 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 fisheries engineering technician role treats 9 of its required skills as things a fisheries boatmaster already does. These are the ones it depends on most.
- International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships
- ensure vessel compliance with regulations
- extinguish fires
- fisheries legislation
- fishing vessels
- international regulations for preventing collisions at sea
What stands in the way is 13 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 12 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A fisheries engineering technician role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a fisheries boatmaster background worth leading with.
- already held quality of fish products agriculture, forestry, fisheries and veterinary
- already held fishing vessels agriculture, forestry, fisheries and veterinary
- already held International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships business, administration and law
- already held fisheries legislation agriculture, forestry, fisheries and veterinary
- already held international regulations for preventing collisions at sea business, administration and law
- already held survive at sea in the event of ship abandonment assisting and caring
All 12 carried skills, including the 9 the fisheries engineering technician role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you would need to learn
The 16 missing skills fall into 7 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.

Table 4 · Where to start
The 3 entries a fisheries engineering technician role is least likely to hire without. The ordering is computed from the skill data, not from what pays.
- 01 engineering processes knowledge · sector specific
- 02 mechanical engineering knowledge · sector specific
- 03 mechanics of vessels knowledge · sector specific
Each entry opens a course search for that skill. Career Overlap earns nothing from these links.

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.
