Nav Canada careers

NAV CANADA are Canada’s Air Navigation Service Provider (ANSP) managing 12 million aircraft movements a year for 40,000 customers in over 18 million square kilometres – the world’s second-largest ANSP by traffic volume. Their airspace stretches from the Pacific West coast to the East coast of Newfoundland and out to the centre of the North Atlantic, the world’s busiest oceanic airspace with some 1,200 flights crossing to and from the European continent daily. It also stretches from the busy U.S-Canada border with major international airports to the North Pole where aircraft fly polar routes to reach Asia. They are also the world’s first fully privatized civil air navigation service provider, created in 1996 through the combined efforts of commercial air carriers, general aviation, the Government of Canada, as well as their employees and their unions. Their revenues come from their aviation customers, not government subsidies. By investing in operations and controlling costs, they strive to keep customer charges stable, while improving safety and flight efficiency. Safety is their first priority. Their safety benchmark of IFR-to-IFR losses of separation has seen a steady reduction since 1996, and their record is now among the best in the world. Their customers and the service they provide are the focus of their operations. Their efforts are directed to helping them improve their flight efficiency and providing cost effective services. In doing so, they help to reduce the impact of aviation activity on the environment.
