This originality has been in our blood since day one. It’s the spirit we share with the people that fly with us, our partners, and our colleagues.

So, whether you are a reassuring voice on the end of a phone, a smile at the door, under a wing keeping the turbines spinning or landing us gently in far-flung places, a job at British Airways is yours to make.

We know great things can happen when you’re inspired to think big and bring your ambition to work every day, which is why, at British Airways the sky is never the limit.

  • Drive and deliver strategic transformation across all 10 global bases, optimising commercial benefit and efficiency. Maintain effective operation ensuring compliance with complex, varied employment legislation.
  • Drive a healthy balanced employer/employee relationship with high eNPS, driving operational stability and outstanding customer outcomes.
  • Collaborate with BA, International Airlines Group, Op Cos, and external suppliers to build an exceptional cabin crew contact platform and performance platform, enhancing commercial outcomes.
Your experience
