Aviation Safety Assessor/System Safety Engineer

Are you a system safety engineer looking to work with aviation safety within air traffic services (ATM/ATS), conducting risk and system safety analyses in a safety-critical environment with a holistic perspective on people, technology, organization, and safety culture? Then you now have the opportunity to become part of a team with expertise in the field that will welcome you with open arms.

At LFV, we actively work to maintain a high safety culture. We constantly strive for improved aviation safety and to minimize our contribution to the risk of accidents and incidents as much as practically possible. Achieving satisfactory aviation safety is therefore LFV's highest priority. Common to everything we work with is that it is largely governed by EU regulations, the Transport Agency, and ICAO. How LFV works with these regulations is summarized in our SMS (Safety Management System).

In aviation safety work, the Aviation Safety Unit is a central actor responsible for delivering aviation safety-related services. The unit is responsible for three areas of operation:

• Aviation safety assessments
• Regulations and methods
• Deviation reporting/Investigations

We currently have about 40 employees primarily in Stockholm, Malmö, Gothenburg, and Norrköping, and belong to the organization Common Services, which also includes procurement, facilities and services, finance, HR, payroll, training, communication, registration, and archives.

To continue contributing to aviation safety work in the best possible way, in a growing industry with many new challenges, we are now looking for an experienced Aviation Safety Assessor/System Safety Engineer.
