1 Share of the director of compliance and information security in gambling role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the games development 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 director of compliance and information security in gambling role treats 3 of its required skills as things a games development manager already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • ensure compliance with policies
  • follow ethical code of conduct of gambling
  • responsible gambling

What stands in the way is 9 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 5 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A director of compliance and information security in gambling role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a games development manager background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held manage gambling finances management skills
  • already held ensure gambling operational standards assisting and caring
  • already held responsible gambling health and welfare
  • already held follow ethical code of conduct of gambling assisting and caring
  • already held ensure compliance with policies management skills

All 5 carried skills, including the 3 the director of compliance and information security in gambling 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.
