1 Share of the animal feed supervisor role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the food production manager 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 animal feed supervisor role treats 10 of its required skills as things a food production manager already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • apply GMP
  • apply HACCP
  • apply requirements concerning manufacturing of food and beverages
  • food and beverage industry
  • food authentication techniques
  • food legislation

What stands in the way is 20 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 14 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A animal feed supervisor role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a food production manager background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held keep up with innovations in food manufacturing information skills
  • already held food authentication techniques engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held food legislation engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held mitigate waste of resources management skills
  • already held food and beverage industry engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held financial capability business, administration and law

All 14 carried skills, including the 10 the animal feed supervisor role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 36 missing skills fall into 9 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.

3 gaps that are knowledge rather than practice

Knowledge gaps usually close through study. Practical skill gaps usually need something you can point at.

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.
