Aer Lingus Recruitment
Direct Entry Pilots - Dublin Based
As Aer Lingus continues to grow and expand we are adding additional A320 and A330 aircraft to our fleet in 2007. This will allow us to increase frequency on existing routes, expand our network to serve new routes and offer a greater choice of destinations to our customers.
As a result we now have a requirement for suitably qualified co-pilots to join our Flight Operations team based at Dublin airport.
These positions are available immediately. The successful candidates will initially operate on our short-haul routes, operated by A320 aircraft, on European flights from Dublin Airport. As these are permanent vacancies there will be ample opportunities to move onto our A330 long haul fleet and for command over time.
Applications are now being sought from rated and non-rated first officers. Priority will be given to those applicants who hold a current A320 type rating and have at least 500 hours on type and 1000 hours in total.
