The restructuring of Events into the Operations Department has created some vacancies! If you have any questions about the roles, including suitability then please don’t hesitate to get in touch. I am keen to foster some more home-grown talent in the department - we do not expect anyone to be the complete package when they apply for staff roles - training and guidance will be provided. I would be keen to receive applications from newer and more experienced members alike.
Vacancies
I am opening applications for the following roles:
- Operations Manager
- Enroute Operations Coordinator
- Events Assistant
The Operations Manager role is the counterpart to the Events Manager Role. In this role you will act as my deputy, helping me to manage the day-to-day function of the Operations half of the Department. A C1 rating is not required, what I need most is someone who enjoys working alongside others in a wider team, has the availability and desire to excel in the role and enough experience on the network to understand the wider context and implications of the work we produce in the department. Experience as a staff member in VATSIM UK, or equivalent experience is desirable.
The Enroute Operations Coordinator is the department’s subject matter expert on area control. For this reason, a C1 rating (or greater) is required. No-one is an expert on every sector and I do not expect applicants to be (I am certainly not one!). We are lucky to have many contributors, all with their own knowledge bases whose experience you would be required to draw upon in the role.
The Events Assistant role, will report to the Events Manager (Luke Thompson). You will be helping Luke to organise the UK’s event schedule including Hogmanay Fly-ins, Mancheaster and of course Cross-the-Pond! You will also be working with the Community department to help them advertise our events, organising our Events Team of volunteers who produce rosters and help to manage events on the day.
More detail can be found on these roles in the Operations Handbook.
If you wish to discuss any of these positions, particularly if unsure how you might best fit into the department, please feel free to contact me, either via Discord DM (add me as a friend first!) or via email jack.edwards[at]vatsim.uk
To Apply
Please submit an application by email to jobs[at]vatsim.uk. Please write a short application (max. 300 words) outlining your relevant experience and why you are interested in the role.
Application Deadline
EDIT: Applications will be accepted until latest 23:59z on Sunday 17th November for the Operations Manager and Events Assistant Role.
Applications for the Enroute Operations Coordinator will remain open UFN.
