Aer Lingus is hiring over 100 pilots as part of a new recruitment drive.

The Irish airline is set to double its North Atlantic fleet by 2023, and is looking to increase its number of pilots to match the demand.

In a statement on their website, the major airline wrote: “We’ve launched our latest pilot recruitment drive, with over 100 direct entry pilot positions available. Positions are open to qualified pilots, who, if successful, will join our flight team for an exciting and rewarding career, flying our modern aircraft, such as the Airbus A320/321 and A330.”

The job comes with the promise of the opportunity to fly to over 80 destinations worldwide.

Aer Lingus has also pointed to their record of hiring female pilots, “employing twice as many compared with the international airline industry average.”

The recruitment process has opened today, and will remain open until Friday, 28 December.

Applicants who are interested are encouraged to apply here.
