Any ATCO Jobs coming up?
Does anyone know of any ATCO jobs coming up in the near future?
Ideally looking for a radar unit. Thanks DCS |
finger on the pulse eh? ;)
Inverness and Bournemouth currently advertising. Air Traffic Control jobs Manchester Airport Jobs |
The Peel Group or DFS are likely to need to replace a number of tower only rated ATCOs at EGGW soon. Please explain or point me in the direction of some further info. Cheers |
Inverness pay well!

Not if you look at the Bournemouth job, LXGB! :{

Anyone know if Newcastle or Liverpool may be recruiting in the near future? Both filled. |
With Manston and Prestwick up for sale, there may be some more experienced ATCOs on the market soon.

For Inverness you need ADI,APS and APP ratings.The unit operates mornings (up to 8.30am)and evenings procedural.Also a Met ticket for nights.

NATS Luton tower contract is up for renewal. Deadline for submission of business plan passed a while ago, the Spanish concession operator will make the decision.
|
Hm if NATS don't get the contract, how will the new incumbents be trained?

Hm if NATS don't get the contract, how will the new incumbents be trained? Given the manner in which NATS have been treating new recruits over the last few years, I doubt they'd have the intelligence or the resources to persuade every existing ATCO at Luton to stay with NATS. What would ensure NATS survival at Luton is the provision of Approach Radar Services. Is the airfield contract separate from the remote provision of radar from Swanwick? If not then NATS have the upper hand as the new provider would have to directly employ radar rated atcos, engineers and probably pay for the oversight and commissioning of radar facilities at the airport. That would require an extremely lengthy contract to get a financially worthwhile return. |

Southend still recruiting. ADI, APP and APS required. :ok: |
HIAL - Mobile ATCO required.
Mobile Air Traffic Controller with Highlands and Islands Airports Ltd | 1401338032
Either you need a mobile, or wheels, or both. Ideal job for a nomad re writing the Complete Works of Shakespeare or similar. Crap salary for what they're asking, but I dare say that the take up would be so low you could demand your own price. |
Crap salary for what they're asking, but I dare say that the take up would be so low you could demand your own price. When I think about it, I have great respect for anyone who has found a job that suits them perfectly. I have a friend who works with HIAL and seems very happy. He had worked in quite a few different parts of the world before ending up in his homeland again - as I say, it seems to suit him well. When it comes to salary there are a couple of things to keep in mind. First, that the salary offered by HIAL still puts the successful applicant into the top 10% of earners in the UK - perhaps we can get too used to the salaries we get in this business. Second, what really matters to me is what lifestyle one can enjoy on the salary. My guess is that one can have a pretty good life in the Scottish islands on the salary offered by HIAL, combine that with, say, a love of outdoor activities and the successful applicant could have found the ideal job. |
Good post :ok:
|
Actually diesel would be nearer 153.9p a litre in the isles.
Don't forget the allowances(shift,weekend/PH,Met,Mobile) would add a bit on the basic pay.Final salary pension as well at the moment,but for how much longer?Don't know if HIAL are very good at paying relocations to new staff.:( You could get quite a good house,for the price of a flat down south,but castles will be a bit much.Looks like they have had a good response to the RATCO post at PE,so maybe there's a lot more people looking around than first thought. |
I think the salary is fair. The job can be interesting at times, getting your APC ticket to deal with 3 to 4 IFR movements at the same time then doing sod all for an hour.
As I have said before the ATC part of the job should cause no problems ( although I think lack of experience is beginning to creep into some HIAL airfields, nothing dangerous just not as tight as it could be). The main aspect any applicant should consider is that you are living on an island (EGPC could also be thought of as an island it is just not surrounded by water :E ), and that can take some time getting use to. I enjoyed my 3 years detatchment to HIAL however I was single and on NATS pay rates :ok: and TBH 3 years was enough! Rgds AyrTC |
