40.1/ 100

1 Share of the paperhanger supervisor role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the road construction supervisor 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 paperhanger supervisor role treats 15 of its required skills as things a road construction supervisor already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • advise on construction materials
  • ensure compliance with construction project deadline
  • ensure equipment availability
  • evaluate employees work
  • follow health and safety procedures in construction
  • inspect construction supplies

What stands in the way is 4 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 26 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A paperhanger supervisor role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a road construction supervisor background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held ensure compliance with construction project deadline management skills
  • already held construction product regulation business, administration and law
  • already held advise on construction materials communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held negotiate supplier arrangements communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held order construction supplies communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held calculate needs for construction supplies information skills

All 26 carried skills, including the 15 the paperhanger supervisor role treats as required.

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.
