48.4/ 100

1 Share of the insurance product manager role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the relationship banking 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 insurance product manager role treats 17 of its required skills as things a relationship banking manager already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • advise on financial matters
  • analyse financial performance of a company
  • analyse financial risk
  • analyse market financial trends
  • corporate social responsibility
  • create a financial plan

What stands in the way is 9 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 19 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A insurance product manager role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a relationship banking manager background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held principles of insurance business, administration and law
  • already held types of insurance business, administration and law
  • already held enforce financial policies management skills
  • already held financial analysis business, administration and law
  • already held financial products business, administration and law
  • already held analyse financial performance of a company information skills

All 19 carried skills, including the 17 the insurance product manager role treats as required.

6 gaps that are knowledge rather than practice

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.
