Team

This role is part of Flight Operations and reports directly to the Flight Operations Manager, Efficiencies and Sustainability. As a Flight Efficiencies Analyst, you will play a vital role within the team, closely collaborating with the Flight Operations Team.

You will be individually responsible for reporting on flight efficiency initiatives, focusing on optimising fuel consumption, emissions, and operating costs. This will involve analysing both current and future initiatives in relation to airline costs and network, providing insights that support key areas such as crew engagement, airport, airspace, and aircraft efficiencies. In addition, you will work to enhance overall data quality, ensuring that stakeholders have accurate, reliable information to make data-driven decisions. Your contributions will help improve the overall efficiency and sustainability performance of the department, enabling the airline to meet its operational and environmental goals.

What you’ll be doing:

You will support the implementation, oversight, and management of internal and external Flight Efficiencies Reporting Systems, including carbon reporting and fuel and carbon emissions intensity metrics. You’ll perform ad-hoc analysis and data-related projects to support new initiatives and optimise workflows. Additionally, you will monitor, track, and analyse fuel and flight efficiencies data using platforms such as Skywise, Databricks, and Tableau, whilst developing new reporting frameworks like RefuelEU, Non-CO2 Methodology Reporting Verification, and ESG reporting. You’ll review existing reporting limitations and suggest improvements, and assist the Flight Efficiencies team in implementing and monitoring flight efficiency initiatives. Collaborating with cross-functional working groups, you’ll contribute to departmental initiatives and deliver work in an agile manner, ensuring the business meets its challenges and priorities. Regularly liaising with the Flight Operations Manager, you’ll help refine systems and processes, working closely with the team to ensure easyJet maintains the highest level of safety and efficiency.

What you’ll need to do the role:

To succeed in this role, you’ll need proven analytical experience working with large volumes of technical data, ideally within the aviation industry. You should be well-organised with a keen eye for detail, especially when working under pressure. Clear and concise communication skills, both verbal and written, are essential for conveying technical information effectively. You must be able to engage with and collaborate across teams, driving a strong focus on innovation and efficiency. Proactivity and resilience are key, with the ability to manage a heavy workload and meet tight deadlines in a fast-paced environment. Strong computer literacy is essential, including proficiency in Windows, Microsoft Office, and Excel. You should also have solid skills in SQL and/or Python, with experience analysing and developing data from large datasets being an advantage. A degree in computer science or an aviation-related field is desirable, and whilst aviation experience is a plus, it is not a requirement. If you have experience in these areas, we’d love to hear from you!

What you’ll get in return:

> Competitive base salary
> Up to 20% bonus
> 25 days holiday
> BAYE, SAYE & Performance share schemes
> 5% pension
> Life Assurance
> Flexible benefits package
> Excellent staff travel benefits
