Senior Aircraft Modeller

We are seeking a senior specialist with experience in simulating aircraft ground movements within airport environments. The role focuses on developing aircraft micro-simulation models to support airside planning, improve operational efficiency, and assess layout and procedural changes.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop micro-simulation models for aircraft taxiing, pushback, towing, and stand operations
• Analyse ground movement flows, delays, stand occupancy, and runway usage
• Assess layout efficiency, conflict points, and turnaround operations
• Interpret and analyse flight schedules to model realistic aircraft movements
• Coordinate with airside planners, layout designers, and operational teams
• Deliver technical outputs, visualizations, and scenario assessments

Requirements:

• Minimum 10 years of experience in transport or airport simulation with a focus on aircraft ground movements
• Proficient in tools such as AirTop, CAST, or similar aircraft simulation software
• Strong understanding of aircraft operations, stand allocation, and apron procedures
• Ability to work with flight schedules, stands, and gate assignment logic
• Experience in runways assignment and runway capacity
• Skilled in interpreting airport layout drawings and integrating them into simulation models
• Effective communication and reporting abilities
