1 Share of the crop production manager role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the vineyard 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 crop production manager role treats 7 of its required skills as things a vineyard manager already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • environmental legislation in agriculture and forestry
  • fertilisation principles
  • health and safety regulations
  • manage agricultural staff
  • manage production enterprise
  • pest control in plants

What stands in the way is 23 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 11 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A crop production manager role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a vineyard manager background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held manage agritourism activities management skills
  • already held e-agriculture agriculture, forestry, fisheries and veterinary
  • already held manage agricultural staff management skills
  • already held manage production enterprise management skills
  • already held fertilisation principles agriculture, forestry, fisheries and veterinary
  • already held organic farming agriculture, forestry, fisheries and veterinary

All 11 carried skills, including the 7 the crop production manager role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 49 missing skills fall into 12 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.

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.
