That depends on the length - research has proven it isn’t normally an issue, current BA policy does allow well groomed and short beards and you do see them often enough across all ranks and fleets.
The mantra for airline interviews was always: dark suit, white shirt, red tie and either clean shaven or a well groomed/clipped beard and a conservative hair cut. With minor alterations for your own gender identify/religious requirements of course, I fail to see how this isn’t just as applicable today.
