Confirmed that it requires at least Professional 5 in processing. I have Professional 3 in gathering and Professional 4 in processing and don't have the quest yet.

Technically the tooltip is correct. It says "> Professional 4 Process" and "> Skilled 9 Gather", > is better known as Greater Than. It doesn't say = (equals). So anything Pro5 Process and Skilled 10 Gather or higher works.

This was the problem I ran into. You need to do all the Beginner tree from the Mission Log (Suggested Tab). After you complete all of these beginner quests you can see the Excellent Magnate quest on the villager in the Keplan building.
I was able to do this quest with prof 1 gathering and prof 10 processing. just have to make sure you have all the other processing skills up to beginner.
This quest is actually given by an NPC simply named Villager. The villager is located in Keplan, inside the smithy, behind the armorer and the NPC that exchanges seals. This quest leads you to the NPC Vatudun.
