An order of merit will be determined and offers made on this basis. Preference will be given to those who are available to start on the date defined in the vacancy.
Offers are subject to:
Reference Checking:
Satisfactory verbal comment by at least two professional referees on past work performance. Preferably current managers.
Obtaining a Work to Residence Immigration Visa: Airways has Accredited Employer status with New Zealand Immigration. This means that successful applicants only have to satisfy the Immigration requirements for Police Checks and Medical.
Aviation Medical:
Obtaining an unencumbered current NZ Civil Aviation Authority Class 3 medical certificate. This is either completed overseas by a New Zealand Registered Medical Examiner if in the locality, otherwise once the controller is in New Zealand (subject to agreement).
Obtaining Fit and Proper Person status with NZCAA: Anyone holding or applying for an aviation document must satisfy the Director of Civil Aviation that they are a fit and proper person to do so. For applicants this means supplying NZCAA proof of identity and may mean further Police Certificates and traffic offences history as the requirements are different from Immigration.
Obtaining an Airport Security Pass:
This involves satisfying the New Zealand Aviation Security Services' vetting process.
In the event that you have any doubt about your ability to meet the prescribed Immigration, Security or Medical Standards, we strongly encourage you to seek further information from NZCAA or New Zealand Immigration before you submit your application.
We suggest you contact either: NZCAA info@caa.govt.nz or New Zealand Immigration +64 9 914 4100.
