40.6/ 100

1 Share of the elderly home manager role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the rescue centre 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 elderly home manager role treats 55 of its required skills as things a rescue centre manager already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • address problems critically
  • adhere to organisational guidelines
  • advocate for others
  • advocate for social service users
  • analyse community needs
  • apply decision making within social work

What stands in the way is 10 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 64 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A elderly home manager role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a rescue centre manager background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held provide safeguarding to individuals assisting and caring
  • already held use person-centred planning management skills
  • already held evaluate staff performance in social work management skills
  • already held manage budgets for social services programs management skills
  • already held influence policy makers on social service issues communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held advocate for others communication, collaboration and creativity

All 64 carried skills, including the 55 the elderly home manager role treats as required.

12 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.
