1 Share of the botanist role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the gambling 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.

Table 2

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 16 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A botanist role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a gambling manager background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area

already held manage recreational facility management skills

already held schedule recreation facilities management skills
already held promote recreation activities communication, collaboration and creativity
already held recreation activities services
already held supervise daily information operations management skills

All 16 carried skills, including the 16 the botanist role treats as required.

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.
