hola argan
segun lo entiendo yo, creo que por lo menos, haber sido valido en los uno de los sectores en la sala de control para ser uno de esos "misters" o WS.
no estoy muy seguro pero es lo que veo en NATS que todos ellos eran controladores en algun tiempo u otro y sobretodo, como ya han respondido, tienes que tener la habilidad de decir una cosa y despues actuar otra....
espero que esto ayude

You also need to be a controller first of all so you can make friends with all those that you subsequently stitch up, or maybe not in certain circumstances, hence why you get the promotion for being an ar$ehOl.
Not a position desired by many.......

Your Spanish ATCO Licence is unlikely to be recognised by NATS or the UK CAA. In any case there will be a 'waiting list' of people wanting to take on supervisory responsibility so you would have to work at whatever unit you're sent to for a long time before becoming a supervisor.

Thank u guys.
Actually my question makes sense in order to determine if a supervisor is a career open competition ( no interview, just promoted on professional merits, or a supervisor becomes just a "big managerīs" decision).
Our profession must be respected by all stakeholders, and our experience ( not only managers interests and rewards) must be the starting point of operational daily basis.
All stakeholders should work together (considering different interests) to build a safe, efficient an flexible single sky.

....unless you are quite adept at failing now and again. It has been known for nats to reward failure on the odd occasion with promotion....

You should apply in any case, you have obviously swallowed the Management Book of Essential Vocabulary without choking on it. My only tip would be to start your application with the word 'So...'

I ll never do that, at least while "cost cutting" seems to be the ONLY goal ( and personal rewards) of actual air traffic management.

Fortunately I am not in Palma, nice place but I guess my colleagues are having really tough times. Actually I am not happy in spain either ( 6 days off in july), I don t know when I am having hollidays, I donīt know if I will have to work in my day off, I don t when I wlll see my daughter, headaches, cervical contractures....
Anyway, I like UK but I prefer another country to move in. Always liked southamerica, any country hiring now? I don t care about salaries, just a good place to live.

rumouroid,
I guess my wife wish I got that money, not me, I just want to enjoy life. I am sorry for her, my salary is much lower.
If you only want money, better try to become a big manager, ( 2 million pounds is good for u?).
What about air traffic controllers proffesion?
What are the legal implications ( rights and responabilities ) of our licenses?
Do we have to asume the personal responsability of working in not good aeronautical medical conditions if managers and companies push too hard in order to achieve objectives ?
What about what our license implies?
It s not a matter of money, it s our proffesion ( we love it, do we? ) and our rights and responsabilities with our license.
