Role Description

Cranfield Airport is located between Bedford and the City of Milton Keynes and has annual movements of circa 35,000. The Airport provides Aerodrome and Procedural Approach control from the UK’s first operational digital control tower, which opened in December 2018. A project to install and commission surveillance radar is in progress, with commissioning due in 2026.

Situated in busy Class G airspace, Cranfield manages a variety of traffic types ranging from single engine training aircraft to BAe146 and ATR-72 and is home to several companies which provide commercial flight training, maintenance, and research and testing for industry and government projects.

We currently have a vacancy for an Air Traffic Control Officer who, as an integral part of the tower team, will provide ATS in accordance with regulation, and be pivotal in the coordination and deployment of the support staff and operators across the business. In addition, you will liaise with the Aerodrome Authority on operational matters, and support the SATCO and Airport Manager, as required, in the smooth running of the airport.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a growing airport and provide a safety critical function within the airport business. To be successful in this role you must hold an Air Traffic Control Officer's Licence with ADI rating, ICAO Level 4 English as a minimum, and a CAA Class 3 medical, and will be expected to maintain this standard for the duration of your employment. You will be a flexible, resilient individual with well-developed communication skills, able to cope with the pressures and demands of this safety critical role and adapt your approach to different customers you will meet.

APP and APS ratings, OJTI and Assessor endorsements, are desirable. It would be advantageous if you could further contribute to the business by having a Met Observer’s qualification, operational experience in a Class G environment, or project experience.

Successful applicants will be required to undergo a DBS Criminal Record check and provide a significant work reference history. Please note that interviews may take place outside of normal business hours and may take place online.

At Cranfield, we value Diversity and Inclusion and aim to create and maintain a culture in which everyone can work and study together harmoniously with dignity and respect and realise their full potential.
