1 Share of the leather goods production supervisor role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the leather wet processing department 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 leather goods production supervisor role treats 8 of its required skills as things a leather wet processing department manager already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • develop manufacturing recipes
  • execute working instructions
  • manage environmental impact of operations
  • manage staff
  • monitor operations in the leather industry
  • purchase raw material supplies

What stands in the way is 13 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 leather goods production supervisor role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a leather wet processing department manager background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held develop manufacturing recipes communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held purchase raw material supplies communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held test chemical auxiliaries information skills
  • already held leather physical testing engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held leather technology engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held monitor operations in the leather industry information skills

All 14 carried skills, including the 8 the leather goods production supervisor 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.
