Summary
The AAIB is part of the Department for Transport (DfT), and our purpose is to improve aviation safety by determining the circumstances and causes of aircraft accidents and serious incidents and promoting safety action to prevent recurrence. We investigate accidents and serious incidents to civil aircraft in the UK and overseas, where there is a UK interest, and your primary role will be to investigate the operational aspects of these events as part of a multi-disciplinary team.
You will be contracted to work 37 hours each week and expected to spend at least 60% of your working time either at the AAIB offices at Farnborough House or at other locations on official business.

Deploying at short notice to civil aircraft accidents and serious incidents within the UK or worldwide.
Supporting foreign safety investigation authorities in their work and conducting investigations in the UK’s Overseas Territories and Crown Dependencies.
Producing reports into the operational aspects of an event and promoting action to improve safety.
Keeping the families of victims of fatal accidents informed of the progress of an investigation and briefing them on the findings and conclusions.
Giving technical evidence at coroners’ inquests to explain the findings of a report.
