1 Share of the spa manager role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the laundry workers supervisor 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 spa manager role treats 12 of its required skills as things a laundry workers supervisor already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • analyse goal progress
  • company policies
  • discharge employees
  • handle customer complaints
  • manage budgets
  • manage customer service

What stands in the way is 34 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 21 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A spa manager role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a laundry workers supervisor background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held discharge employees management skills
  • already held manage customer service management skills
  • already held manage workflow processes communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held assess employees' capability levels management skills
  • already held manage profitability management skills
  • already held analyse goal progress information skills

All 21 carried skills, including the 12 the spa manager role treats as required.

10 gaps that are knowledge rather than practice

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

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.
