Crew Planning Officer

Crew Planning builds and maintains compliant flight-deck and cabin-crew rosters across the medium- and long-term planning horizon. You'll make sure every roster is FTL-compliant before it's published, with training, checking, leave and qualification requirements already built in. Your output feeds Crew Control, who take over real-time management inside the 0–72-hour window.

Key responsibilities

• Develop and maintain compliant crew rosters within the defined planning horizons, in line with the Operations Manual Part A
• Integrate operational schedules, recurrent training and checking events, and annual leave into the planning cycle before rosters are issued
• Verify FTL compliance on every roster prior to publication and run forward FTL modelling to flag compliance risks before they reach the operational window
• Maintain accurate crew qualification, availability and base data in Leon.
• Coordinate planning data with Crew Control for near-term execution and hand over roster changes falling inside the 0–72-hour window
• Support manpower forecasting and analytical reporting
• Monitor roster disruptions on a monthly basis to reduce future disruption
• Ensure roster traceability for audit purposes, and ensure a complete, precise information flow between shifts and departments
• Report any non-conformity to the Direct Manager
• Assist with other Crew Planning duties as required by the Direct Manager
