Not that I could find, and see p.22 which explicitly allows multiple occupation or magical keywords.
Actually, I probably wouldn't have allowed that Harrek as written either, and I might reduce the starting target number of any keywords that were essentially split (i.e. two occupations or two magics).
For example, I would make his Wolf Pirates a relationship, not a keyword -- he never spent enough time with the Wolf Pirates to learn all about sailing etc.

I think it's plausible to have multiple occupations (indeed, I think this is implicit in the Grazer keywords).
