Together as one team, we're connecting Britain with the world and the world to Britain like no one else.


We are looking for an experienced Health, Safety and Environment Advisor to provide knowledge and guidance to our 3000 strong Engineering function within British Airways.

Our Engineering function looks after the maintenance of our fleet of aircraft working in our hangar, workshops and ramp/terminal environments.

It is essential you have Qualifications at Level 3 for Health & Safety with Environmental accreditations being an advantage.


Your impact on British Airways will be rewarded with a competitive rewards package plus the opportunity to develop and progress your career in many directions.

At British Airways we all have a part to play in creating an inclusive place to work.

Diverse representation among our people is really important to us and we recognise that all our colleagues are uniquely different and bring their own originality, creativity and identity to work.


Inclusion and diversity is a key driver of innovation and we're committed to creating a culture where everyone feels that they can be themselves.
