Aerospace Control Officer

Overview As a member of the Canadian Armed Forces, Aerospace Control Officers support air operations by providing air traffic control and air weapons control services. They conduct aerospace surveillance, warning, and control of airborne objects across Canadian airspace and provide control to civilian and military aircraft during combat and training operations worldwide.

Work Environment Officers may be deployed to ships, aircraft, or in the field across Canada, the United States, and Europe. Initially, they work as air traffic controllers at Canadian military airbases or in the air‑defence sector, controlling fighter aircraft at the Canadian Air Defence Sector. Regular Force members are assigned to their first base after completing required training, with possible relocation. Primary Reserve members work part‑time on a chosen Reserve unit’s schedule, typically one night per week and some weekends.
