A pasta maker already meets 51% of what the baker role asks for. The move turns on 15 required skills not yet in the profile.
51%
62.9/ 100
1 Share of the baker role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the pasta maker 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 baker role treats 20 of its required skills as things a pasta maker already does. These are the ones it depends on most.
- administer ingredients in food production
- apply GMP
- apply HACCP
- apply requirements concerning manufacturing of food and beverages
- crafting
- ensure correct use of bakery equipment
What stands in the way is 15 required skills 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 39 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A baker role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a pasta maker background worth leading with.
- already held monitor flour unloading equipment handling and moving
- already held monitor operations of cleaning machines information skills
- already held crafting arts and humanities
- already held ensure correct use of bakery equipment assisting and caring
- already held improvise to occuring food processing situations handling and moving
- already held monitor temperature in farinaceous processes working with machinery and specialised equipment
All 39 carried skills, including the 20 the baker role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you would need to learn

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.
