49/ 100

1 Share of the malt house supervisor role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the malt master 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 malt house supervisor role treats 11 of its required skills as things a malt master already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • apply GMP
  • apply HACCP
  • apply requirements concerning manufacturing of food and beverages
  • assess cereal quality for brewing
  • colours of roasted malt
  • handle flammable substances

What stands in the way is 8 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 16 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A malt house supervisor role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a malt master background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held colours of roasted malt engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held roast malt working with machinery and specialised equipment
  • already held inspect silo systems assisting and caring
  • already held types of barley engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held assess cereal quality for brewing information skills
  • already held malting process engineering, manufacturing and construction

All 16 carried skills, including the 11 the malt house supervisor role treats as required.

Table 3

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 16 missing skills fall into 8 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.

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.
