56%
48.3/ 100
1 Share of the fish cook role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the pizzaiolo 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 fish cook role treats 11 of its required skills as things a pizzaiolo already does. These are the ones it depends on most.
- comply with food safety and hygiene
- ensure cleanliness of food preparation area
- handover the food preparation area
- maintain a safe, hygienic and secure working environment
- maintain kitchen equipment at correct temperature
- receive kitchen supplies
What stands in the way is 5 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 15 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A fish cook role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a pizzaiolo background worth leading with.
- already held receive kitchen supplies management skills
- already held use culinary finishing techniques assisting and caring
- already held maintain kitchen equipment at correct temperature handling and moving
- already held store kitchen supplies handling and moving
- already held handover the food preparation area handling and moving
- already held ensure cleanliness of food preparation area information skills
All 15 carried skills, including the 11 the fish cook role treats as required.

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.
