We are seeking a Lead Consultant (Aviation) with at least 20 years of aviation industry experience and deep technical and operational expertise in air traffic management (ATM), air navigation services (ANS) and ATC automation. The role requires detailed knowledge of arrival and departure management(AMAN/DMAN), time-based metering and sequencing, trajectory-based operations, traffic flow management and airspace optimisation, supported by a strong understanding of flight data processing, surveillance systems and air-ground datalink technologies.

As the lead aviation subject-matter expert, you will connect operational procedures, controller workflows, aircraft capabilities and airport constraints with the design and delivery of technical solutions. You will draw on experience across multiple aviation programmes and regional or international authority engagements to advise aviation authorities, air navigation service providers, airport operators, airlines and other aviation stakeholders.

The role combines specialist aviation consultancy with hands-on technical leadership in solution architecture, aviation data engineering and applied AI. You will guide the development of real-time aviation platforms, operational analytics and decision-support applications, ensuring solutionsreflect aviation data semantics, interoperability standards, safety considerations and operational requirements. You will also mentor consulting andengineering teams, bringing the domain depth needed to turn complex aviation challenges into validated, deployable solutions.

Responsibilities:

• Serve as the lead aviation subject-matter expert, guiding solution development across air traffic management (ATM), air navigation services (ANS),airport operations and aviation digital platforms.
• Translate operational concepts, procedures and constraints into systemrequirements, solution architectures, algorithms and implementation plans.
• Shape solutions involving arrival and departure management (AMAN/DMAN),time-based metering and scheduling, trajectory-based operations (TBO), trafficflow management and airspace optimisation.
• Provide technical guidance on core air traffic control (ATC) automation,including flight data processing, surveillance data processing, controllerworking positions and interfaces with supporting aviation systems.
• Apply experience from multiple airports, aviation authorities andinternational programmes to develop solutions suited to different operationalenvironments.
• Lead aviation data engineering initiatives, including ingestion,integration and processing of flight, surveillance, trajectory, airport andother operational data.
• Architect cloud-based aviation platforms supporting real-timeapplications, data pipelines, advanced analytics and operational decisionsupport.
• Lead the development and evaluation of AI-enabled aviation applications,including operational assistants and contingency planning tools, withappropriate human oversight and validation.
• Direct technical delivery from concept and requirements throughprototyping, simulation, system integration, operational validation anddeployment.
• Advise on aviation system modernisation, interoperability, transitionplanning and operational continuity.
• Engage operational users, authorities, technology providers andengineering teams to resolve complex technical and operational issues.
• Remain hands-on in design reviews, software implementation reviews andtechnical problem-solving, while mentoring teams and transferring aviationdomain knowledge.
