It's a great time to join the Air New Zealand jet fleet!

We are looking for expressions of interest from external pilots wanting to join Air New Zealand in our jet fleets.

Entry as a pilot into our jet fleet is as a second officer on B787 or B777 aircraft, or first officer on our A320/A321s.

Our pilots are valued as leaders who understand our business and are committed to delivering exceptional service to our customers. Strong problem‑solving skills, a clear customer focus, and a friendly, can‑do attitude are the attributes required to keep Air New Zealand operating at world‑class levels.

Recruitment for our jet fleet is now subject to our Regional Pilot Priority Process (RPPP) via which jet pilot vacancies are predominantly filled by internal transfers from our turboprop fleets. We will still hire a small number of pilots from external sources from time to time, and in accordance with the external eligibility criteria described in the RPPP.
