At NAV CANADA, we are experts in navigating Canada’s skies. Helping pilots safely cross 18 million square kilometres of Canadian and North Atlantic airspace is what we do. Operating out of air traffic control towers, Air Traffic Controllers (Airport/Aerodrome Controllers) provide pilots clearances and instructions to maintain separation from other aircraft during takeoff and landing. Their job is to maintain a safe and orderly flow of air traffic within a defined airspace surrounding the airport, referred to as a “control zone”, as well as on the ground on runways and taxiways.

We’re making NAV CANADA a place where everyone truly belongs, where everyone thrives and where everyone is heard. To do that, we want to work with as many different types of people as possible.

If you’d love to shape the future of air navigation, we are currently seeking one (1) Airport/Aerodrome Air Traffic Controller to work within the Toronto City Centre Tower located at Billy Bishop City Centre Airport, 2 Eireann Quay, Toronto, ON M5V 2R9. This is a full time, permanent opportunity.
