51.8/ 100

1 Share of the jeweller role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the jewellery repairer 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 jeweller role treats 10 of its required skills as things a jewellery repairer already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • adjust jewellery
  • assemble jewellery parts
  • build jewellery models
  • clean jewellery pieces
  • create jewellery
  • develop jewellery designs

What stands in the way is 4 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 19 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A jeweller role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a jewellery repairer background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held assemble jewellery parts handling and moving
  • already held handle jewellery and watches insurance claims communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held build jewellery models handling and moving
  • already held mount stones in jewels handling and moving
  • already held repair jewellery handling and moving
  • already held cultured pearls arts and humanities

All 19 carried skills, including the 10 the jeweller role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 26 missing skills fall into 6 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.

7 gaps that are knowledge rather than practice

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.
