Specialist Remote Pilot

Job Title: Specialist Remote Pilot

Location: Westcott, Aylesbury – 25%, Remote – 25%, International Travel – 50%

Department: Flight Operations

Type: Full-time, Permanent


About Us:


Founded in 2018, Skyports is at the forefront of the Advanced Air Mobility revolution, developing and operating cutting-edge infrastructure for electric air taxis and using drone technology to transform business operations across industries.


Our business is split into two key areas:


Skyports Drone Services uses drones to streamline logistics, capture data, and enhance operational efficiency, with a focus on rural deliveries, surveying, surveillance, and maritime services.

Skyports Infrastructure plays a vital role in the Urban Air Mobility ecosystem, designing, building, owning, and operating vertiports that enable eVTOL operators to take off and land in cities around the world.


With our presence in this dynamic, high-growth industry, there has never been a more exciting time to be part of our mission to reshape the future of air mobility.


The Role


We're looking for a Specialist Remote Pilot with proven defense or commercial flying experience to join our fast-growing Drone Services team. This role is not just about piloting — it’s about owning complex operations, contributing to strategic missions, and helping us push the boundaries of what’s possible in aviation.


You'll be flying the latest drones, in places most people never get to go, solving problems that actually make a difference — from offshore energy to emergency medical deliveries. If you're looking for a desk job, this isn’t it.


What does a normal day look like for a Skyports Remote Pilot Specialist?


There isn’t one.


* One week you could be flying heavy-lift drones in the North Sea for offshore energy clients. The next, you’re in the UK, operating flights remotely from our ROC in Aylesbury or Manchester, piloting missions across Europe without leaving your seat.
* Sometimes, you’ll be boots on the ground in places like Norway, Texas, or East Africa, launching aircraft to deliver medical supplies or carry out vital inspections.
* And between deployments, you’ll work from home — planning ops, writing reports, and staying ready for whatever’s next.
* Wherever you are, you’ll be learning from world-class drone pilots and instructors, keeping your skills sharp, and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in commercial drone operations.


About you


* You're a certified Remote Pilot with solid defence or commercial flying experience, proven capability in BVLOS operations, and a strong grasp of drone platforms, maintenance, and systems integration.
* You're not just a pilot — you're a mission owner. You excel in ConOps development, risk assessments, and regulatory compliance, ensuring each operation is safe, efficient, and future-ready.
* You’ve led teams in high-pressure environments and understand what it takes to deliver results. Whether managing field teams or collaborating with clients, you communicate with clarity and confidence.
* You thrive on complexity and are always looking to push boundaries.
* You have an insatiable curiosity for learning and growth. With Skyports, you're eager to expand your horizons, taking on new challenges and continuously enhancing your skills alongside the world's leading BVLOS drone experts.


What We Offer:

* Competitive salary and benefits package.
* Opportunity to work in an innovative and growing industry.
* A collaborative and dynamic work environment with ample opportunities for professional development.
* Flexible working arrangements and a supportive team culture


How to Apply:


If you’re passionate about marketing and keen to be part of a pioneering company that is changing the future of transportation, we would love to hear from you. Please submit your CV and a cover letter outlining your experience and why you’re a great fit for this role.


Skyports is an equal-opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
