86%
14.6/ 100
1 Share of the bicycle courier role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the motorcycle delivery person 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 this move works
A bicycle courier role treats 9 of its required skills as things a motorcycle delivery person already does. These are the ones it depends on most.
- act reliably
- analyse travel alternatives
- communicate with customers
- differentiate types of packages
- drive two-wheeled vehicles
- ensure the integrity of mail
What stands in the way is 1 required skill the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.
Table 2 · What you already bring
Of the 18 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A bicycle courier role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a motorcycle delivery person background worth leading with.

- required, not held obey traffic rules required
- optional, not held operate mailing information systems optional
- optional, not held handle mail optional

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.
