Job description
Team
Connected Crew & Optimised Flying brings together four product groups to improve operational efficiency, safety, crew effectiveness, and sustainability. Within Safety Systems, our objective is to give crews the training, tools and insight they need to prevent, detect and respond to safety risks — because almost every safety principle, rule and procedure is only effective when crews are trained to use it consistently and correctly.
We are looking for a Product Manager to own Crew Training\: the products and data capability that make crew training more consistent, evidence-based and efficient. You will work alongside the Senior Product Manager, Safety Systems, fellow Product Managers across Connected Crew, and the Crew & Aircraft Device Platform team who operate the underlying iPad/EFB estate that crew training products rely on.
The Senior Product Manager, Safety Systems, reports to the Head of Technology, Connected Crew & Optimised Flying, and is accountable to the Director of Crew Training for the delivery of Crew Training outcomes.
This role sits at the intersection of Flight Operations, Cabin Services, Safety and Technology. Crew training today is fragmented across systems that don't talk to each other and relies heavily on manual processes — limiting the insight we can draw from our safety systems and increasing administrative burden on instructors and crew. Your products are the foundation that fixes this\: a unified, data-driven training experience that delivers consistent, continuously improving training with minimal manual effort.
Job Purpose
As a Product Manager, you will own the strategy, development and delivery of the Crew Training products within Safety Systems — products that directly shape the readiness, competence and safety performance of every pilot and cabin crew member across the airline.
Working closely with the Senior Product Manager, Safety Systems, and the Head of Technology, you will take full accountability for your products across their whole lifecycle — setting the vision, defining the roadmap and leading the cross-functional team that delivers it. That team, made up of a Technical Specialist, delivery partners, and supporting analysts and data scientists from across the group, will rely on your leadership to ensure every product decision is grounded in evidence-based training practice, instructor and crew insight, and operational value.
You will ensure training data and records connect cleanly into the wider Safety Systems and Connected Crew landscape, and you will contribute to the strategy of the wider Safety Systems product group, making sure your products earn their place within it.
Objective\: Deliver a unified, data-driven training experience that improves quality and efficiency — replacing fragmented, manual systems with consistent, continuously improving training that scales.
