1 Share of the fisheries boatmaster role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the fisheries master 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 fisheries boatmaster role treats 41 of its required skills as things a fisheries master already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • Global Maritime Distress and Safety System
  • International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships
  • apply fishing maneuvres
  • assess stability of vessels
  • assess trim of vessels
  • assessment of risks and threats

What stands in the way is 5 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 47 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A fisheries boatmaster role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a fisheries master background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held coordinate fish handling operations handling and moving
  • already held schedule fishing management skills
  • already held handle challenging situations in fishery operations communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held apply fishing maneuvres working with machinery and specialised equipment
  • already held prepare safety exercises on ships assisting and caring
  • already held work in a multicultural environment in fishery communication, collaboration and creativity

All 47 carried skills, including the 41 the fisheries boatmaster role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 22 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.

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.
