Anyone here working for the NZ-CAA ATC? I'd be interesting in talking to anyone who does.

Cheers.

After having been to NZ for a few weeks, I have wanted to go back ever since. I'd love to get an ATC job in NZ... however on their website it appears you'd have to make the decision to become an NZ resident before you could apply.

"Apply Now (Please note that this training is for New Zealand Residents only. )"

Too bad, I'd be applying right now if not.

Its the same way in Australia. (you have to be a resident and its pretty hard to become a resident)

I'm a NZ citizen so could go to NZ or Aus at some point. I love NZ but I've heard the ATC pay vs. cost of living makes it a bit less attractive.

I work for Airways New Zealand. They sometimes have openings for controllers )not sure if we need anyone now). We operate under ICAO so an ICAO licence would be better but even if you did have an ICAO licence you would still need to do a course to convert your licence to a New Zealand one anyway. Vacancies would be on the website Airways Career Centre |
