Aircraft marshallers guide aircraft on the ground with signals, radio contact and follow-me vehicles so pilots can move safely between runway, apron and stand.
They assist pilots during turning, slowing, stopping, engine shutdown and positioning at parking stands or runway areas.
In job descriptions, look for marshalling signals, ramp safety, pre-movement checks, air traffic communication, radio equipment, follow-me driving, hazard awareness and written reports.
Work takes place on the airside ground area where aircraft, vehicles and people share limited space. The marshaller gives clear signals, keeps radio contact and confirms that movement to or from a stand can happen safely.
Useful depth includes aircraft marshalling signals, ramp safety, radio use, follow-me vehicle operation, air traffic communication, hazard identification and pre-movement checks.
For aircraft marshalling, pay depends on airside safety responsibility, shift pattern, traffic intensity, radio duties, follow-me vehicle use and how much independent judgement is expected on the ramp.
Experience can lead toward ramp coordination, aircraft turnaround supervision, airside operations, safety inspection, ground handling training or specialist vehicle duties.
Check whether a vacancy separates marshalling from baggage handling, refuelling or general ground support. A precise advert names stand movements, signals, radio channels, follow-me driving and safety reporting.
