1 Share of the gas scheduling representative role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the pipeline route 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 gas scheduling representative role treats 5 of its required skills as things a pipeline route manager already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • comply with pipeline transport regulations
  • ensure regulatory compliance in pipeline infrastructures
  • mitigate environmental impact of pipeline projects
  • perform follow-up on pipeline route services
  • security requirements of goods transported via pipelines

What stands in the way is 7 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 8 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A gas scheduling representative role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a pipeline route manager background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held analyse route possibilities in pipeline projects information skills
  • already held security requirements of goods transported via pipelines services
  • already held perform follow-up on pipeline route services management skills
  • already held comply with pipeline transport regulations assisting and caring
  • already held test pipeline infrastructure operations information skills
  • already held mitigate environmental impact of pipeline projects assisting and caring

All 8 carried skills, including the 5 the gas scheduling representative role treats as required.

Table 3

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 16 missing skills fall into 5 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.
