Engineers

It may be hidden behind the scenes at times, but engineering is a vital part of the work we do. From maintaining current systems to designing and implementing brand new technology, our engineers are responsible for managing a smooth set up and then keeping everything running safely.

Everything from the screens and headsets the controllers use, through to our national network of radar and radio stations, is managed and maintained by the NATS engineering teams. It’s an absolutely vital role. And unlike the roads and railways, you can’t close the skies just because something needs maintenance or an upgrade. Air traffic control is a 24 hour a day undertaking so our job is a little like trying to resurface the M1 without being able to close it!

It’s not just the maintenance of our current systems where engineering plays such an important role. It’s also through the work we do with our partners and suppliers in designing and implementing the next generation of air traffic control technologies.

To ensure we maintain our position as a world leader in the provision of ATC services we look for the very best and talented recruits for our engineering teams, employing over 900 highly experienced engineers and project managers, dedicated to protecting our current and future assets.
