We now have an exciting prospect for Captains, to join us on a permanent contract in London Gatwick, London Luton, Bristol, Birmingham, Liverpool or Belfast, after completing an A320 Type Rating.
If you’re as passionate about flying as we are and are looking to join an airline that can offer you fantastic development opportunities based on merit, not seniority - this is the role for you. No single day will ever be the same - each one filled with new challenges. The one thing that doesn’t change though are our people. They’re positive, inclusive, united by purpose, and they have your back. We call that our ‘Orange Spirit’, and you’ll get to share that too.
