**A bit about us**

The CAA is the UK's aviation regulator and a public corporation of the Department for Transport, recognised as a world leader in its field. Our activities are diverse, ranging from core regulation that delivers a high degree of assurance of safety, security and consumer risk management, to future aviation and sustainability that builds advisory and regulatory capabilities that are both effective and scalable in enabling the UK to take a leading position in the development of new technologies including making a strong contribution to the sustainability challenge.

The restructuring of UK airspace is facilitated through airspace change proposals submitted to the CAA by a range of aviation and non-aviation stakeholders. These proposals vary greatly in terms of size, operational complexity, and scale of consequential impacts, and are required to follow the CAA’s CAP1616 Airspace Change approval process. The Airspace experts within AR perform oversight of such proposals with respect to their impact on existing airspace structures, airports, and all users of airspace, ensuring modern standards for regulatory decision-making are fair, transparent, consistent, and proportionate.

**How will you make a difference**:

- Support integrating the demands of diverse airspace users such as Spaceports, Space Launch Operators, Uncrewed Air Systems, e-VTOL/hybrid aircraft, General Aviation, Military Aviation and Commercial Aviation, all within the framework of the Airspace Modernisation Strategy whilst ensuring that the assessment of airspace impacts have been appropriately considered.
- Perform regulatory oversight of the current airspace system to supporting development of polices to integrate new users. E.G. Urban Air Mobility, UAS and space.
- Review and scrutinise proposals from a wide range of sponsors such as airports, the military, spaceports, and innovation companies, producing objective and independent assessments of the direct and consequential airspace impacts for each proposed airspace change design.
- Lay out the conclusions of these assessments and form a key part of the CAA’s transparent decision-making process for approvals.
- Provide advice, guidance and direction to airspace change sponsors or any other interested parties regarding airspace issues related to operations conducted both inside and outside controlled airspace.
- Assist in developing and implementing strategies and policies for the consideration of airspace design, use or change in accordance with the Department for Transport’s directions to the CAA, UK legislation and Government regulation and guidance.
- Your role will sit at the very heart of the UKs developing airspace, where you will work within cross capability teams both within Airspace Regulation, across the authority, across Government and with external sponsors including, amongst many, UAS Technology companies.

**The knowledge, skills and experience we are looking for**:

- You will possess an excellent understanding of UK airspace and air traffic operations.
- Experience as an air traffic controller, professional aircrew or the ability to demonstrate an equivalent level of technical expertise.
- Understanding or experience in Uncrewed Air Systems and how to safely integrate them with other airspace users.
- Be innovative and able to develop novel solutions, based on expert knowledge and detailed understanding of Air Traffic Management and aviation law principles.
