The Organisation

Airservices Australia is a government-owned organisation responsible for the safe and efficient management of 11% of the world’s airspace and provision of aviation rescue firefighting services at Australia’s busiest airports. 

Our dynamic and diverse teams operate from locations across the country from bustling cities to regional and remote locations, including an island. We keep Australia’s aviation industry safe every day of the year, both in the air and on the ground. 

We connect people with their world safely – linking family and friends, generating economic activity, creating jobs, and facilitating trade and tourism. 

We’re shaping a once-in-a-century step-change. Given the emergence of new airspace users, new aerodromes, and a range of new crewed and uncrewed aircraft, we are working closely with our customers and the community, as we adapt our service offerings to cater to these new and diverse aviation participants, ensuring we continue to keep our skies safe while balancing our environmental and social responsibilities.

Medical Standards 

Licensing as an Air Traffic Controller (ATC) requires attainment of a Class 3 Medical Certificate in accordance with medical standards specified by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA). The medical standards are specified in Part 67 of the Civil Aviation Safety Regulations (CASRs). Any individual who is unable to meet the prescribed medical standards for Air Traffic Controller's will be ineligible to be issued with an ATC licence by CASA, and hence, will automatically be ineligible for ATC training and/or employment with Airservices Australia. 

Please take the time to read Regulation 67.160 of Part 67 of the CASRs before lodging your application. You can find the regulations on CASA's Website. In the event that you have any doubt about your ability to meet the prescribed medical standards, we strongly encourage you to seek further information from CASA before you submit your application. Telephone: 131 757.

Airservices Australia recruitment policy requires that any individual being considered for appointment to the organisation undergo a "Police Records Check" which identifies any past convictions, or present or pending criminal charges against that individual. Any offer of training and subsequent employment with Airservices Australia is contingent upon the applicant undergoing a successful check. Applicants who have been living overseas may be required to provide additional information including overseas police records check in English. 

Airservices Australia is a diverse and inclusive employer that recognises the benefits of having a workforce that reflects the communities in which we work. We encourage applications from diverse groups including Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander people.

Security Clearance  

Please refer to the security check requirements successful applicants will be required to undertake as part of the recruitment process.
