fleet commandertolieutenant
A fleet commander already meets 46% of what the lieutenant role asks for. The move turns on 6 required skills not yet in the profile.
46%
50.5/ 100
1 Share of the lieutenant role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the fleet commander 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 lieutenant role treats 7 of its required skills as things a fleet commander already does. These are the ones it depends on most.
- ensure compliance with policies
- lead military troops
- maintain operational communications
- manage administrative systems
- military code
- military combat techniques
What stands in the way is 6 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 10 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A lieutenant role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a fleet commander background worth leading with.
- already held lead military troops management skills
- already held devise military tactics management skills
- already held manage troop deployment management skills
- already held military combat techniques services
- already held military weaponry services
- already held ensure information security assisting and caring
All 10 carried skills, including the 7 the lieutenant role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you would need to learn
The 16 missing skills fall into 8 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.
- required, not held instruct in military duties required
- required, not held advise superiors on military operations required
- required, not held train military troops required
- required, not held write situation reports required
- optional, not held give battle commands optional

- optional, not held identify security threats optional

2 further areas in the appendix
Table 4 · Where to start
The 3 entries a lieutenant role is least likely to hire without. The ordering is computed from the skill data, not from what pays.
- 01 instruct in military duties skill · sector specific
- 02 advise superiors on military operations skill · cross sector
- 03 military drill knowledge · cross sector
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.
