Working at Civil Aviation Authority

What we do

As the UK's specialist aviation regulator we ensure that:

  • The aviation industry meets the highest safety standards.
  • Consumers have choice, value for money, are protected and treated fairly when they fly.
  • We drive improvements in airlines and airports’ environmental performance.
  • The aviation industry manages security risks effectively.

The CAA is an extremely varied organisation. We have a broad spectrum of business areas, each requiring particular skills, knowledge and experience.

The types of role for which we recruit are equally varied and, to ensure that we are drawing on the best talents available, we take equality and diversity very seriously.

We place particular value on people and believe in maintaining and developing excellence in our staff as they are the source of the CAA's reputation and success.
