1 Share of the machinery assembly coordinator role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the vessel assembly 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 machinery assembly coordinator role treats 6 of its required skills as things a vessel assembly supervisor already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • analyse production processes for improvement
  • create solutions to problems
  • keep records of work progress
  • liaise with managers
  • oversee production requirements
  • report on production results

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

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 18 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A machinery assembly coordinator role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a vessel assembly supervisor background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held oversee production requirements management skills
  • already held report on production results information skills
  • already held check material resources management skills
  • already held schedule regular machine maintenance management skills
  • already held oversee logistics of finished products management skills
  • already held liaise with quality assurance communication, collaboration and creativity

All 18 carried skills, including the 6 the machinery assembly coordinator role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 14 missing skills fall into 6 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.

2 gaps that are knowledge rather than practice

Knowledge gaps usually close through study. Practical skill gaps usually need something you can point at.

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.
