About Us
Egis is a leading global consulting, construction engineering and operating firm. We work hand-in-hand with our clients across every aspect of transport, energy and the built environment to build a more balanced, sustainable and resilient world. We hold 50+ years of experience and have a worldwide workforce of over 18,000 people.
As industry leaders we hold ourselves responsible for today’s biggest challenges; fighting climate change, the digital transition and meeting the needs of growing populations. We do this by designing smart, green infrastructure, transport and buildings, creating a sustainable future for communities everywhere. Joining our group means, above all, sharing our values as a people first company, strongly committed to sustainability and innovation.
Egis Aviation has offices in Farnborough, Dubai, Zilina, Brussels, Paris, Toulouse, Singapore and Hong Kong, as well as clients all over the world. We work for major airports, air navigation service providers, industry and governments improving the efficiency and safety of operations and conducting policy and strategy analysis.
Navigating the complexities of the highly regulated, globally networked and safety-critical aviation industry is no small feat. Yet, with a proven track record of over 4,000 successful projects spanning across 100+ countries, our team stands out.
The Zilina office in Slovakia currently has nine staff with plans to grow. The Zilina office works closely with the offices in Farnborough (~30 staff) and Toulouse (~200 staff) to deliver Egis aviation consultancy services.
About the Role
We’re looking for a seasoned aviation professional, or management consultant who will be based in our Zilina (Slovakia) offices, and who has an interest in supporting the development and implementation of growth strategies of the office and managing the office running and staff. It is a great opportunity for someone looking to take on or further develop their management skills and responsibilities. This person will have the opportunity to work on local, national and international projects, actively contributing to fulfilling our expanding order book. In particular, the ideal person will come with a strong numeric background and a well-rounded knowledge and interest of aviation related politics and regulatory topics.
Our aviation consultancy business can be very fast-paced. If you like being creative, flexible, dynamic and proactive then we want to hear from you!
We have a flat collegiate structure and work in small project teams where our philosophy is to encourage you to manage your own career and time. You’ll have far more autonomy than our competitors offer and in return we ask that you deliver amazing work and ensure that our clients keep coming back to us (currently 80% of our work is repeat business!)
In return we offer competitive salaries and a range of benefits including discretionary bonus, pension, private healthcare, life insurance, in house training, a great work/life balance and opportunities to travel.

You’ll have the following experience and attributes:
- Degree qualified, typically aviation, engineering, economics, business strategy or finance related.
- Prior experience working within aviation, particularly strategic based projects.
- Prior consultancy or project management experience, ideally at a level where you’ve had people management responsibilities.
- Experience with working towards commercial targets and involvement in bid & tender proposals in a consultancy environment.
- Be able to demonstrate excellent data analysis skills in practice, as well as thrive on problem solving and the application of your excellent critical thinking skills.
- The consultancy environment can be very fast-paced with opportunities emerging at very short notice that will require a flexible, agile approach to delivering excellence in consultancy services and meeting or exceeding client requirements.
