8 moves your day-to-day already reaches

The shared tasks are quoted underneath, in both jobs' own words, so you can judge the match rather than trust a score.

Matches come from both careers' own published task lists, not from a similarity score we ask you to trust. A move being listed does not mean an employer will agree: it means the work overlaps and the measurement is better. Retraining routes, if you decide you want one, are on the switch page.
