AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL SPECIALIST (TERMINAL)
What you'd do
You will serve as a AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL SPECIALIST in the Air Operations Division of NB CORONADO.
Major duties
You will operate air traffic control (ATC) communications equipment to facilitate communications with aircraft, adjacent air traffic control facilities, or intra-facility positions. You will establish an on-the-job=training (OJT) program to staff qualified controllers for an air traffic control facility. You will advise arriving and departing aircraft of favored or designated runway and general location of known air traffic in the airport area. You will maintain equipment logs (e.g., tower, radar) to record outages and actions taken to correct discrepancies.
What you need to qualify
Your resume must demonstrate at least one year of specialized experience at or equivalent to the GS-11 grade level or pay band in the Federal service or equivalent experience in the private or public sector. Specialized experience must demonstrate the following: 1) Establishing and maintaining separation of aircraft, sequencing of aircraft (e.g. the time and direction of take-off and any necessary departure turns for the most efficient sequence of arrivals); 2) Planning aircraft movement and issuing instructions to pilots (i.e. radar/tower) to establish landing sequence that assures all aircraft equitable treatment; and 3) Providing guidance on air traffic control policies and procedures. NOTE: Experience must be fully supported in your resume to be considered for this position. Additional qualification information can be found from the following Office of Personnel Management web site: https://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/classification-qualifications/general-schedule-qualification-standards/2100/air-traffic-control-series-2152. Experience refers to paid and unpaid experience, including volunteer work done through National Service programs (e.g., professional, philanthropic, religious, spiritual, community, student, social). Volunteer work helps build critical competencies, knowledge, and skills and can provide valuable training and experience that translates directly to paid employment.
