Are you—or someone you know—looking for a career that makes a real difference in communities across Canada? NAV CANADA is recruiting students for careers in air traffic control for Winnipeg and the surrounding region, no experience necessary.
 
These careers are about more than aviation—they play a critical role in safety, connect remote regions, and support the movement of people and goods that many communities rely on.
Here’s what makes this a unique opportunity:
  • Paid, full-time training — no previous aviation experience needed. Students earn between $56,899–$59,550 annually and may be eligible for relocation supports. Total training time ranges from 12–27 months depending on posting location.
  • Stable, well-paying careers with long-term potential. Graduates start with base salaries between $101,221–$139,333 in their first year, plus applicable premiums, with opportunities to move into training, management, or corporate roles.
  • Work that matters. NAV CANADA is a private not-for-profit with over 100 staffed sites nationwide. You’ll help keep Canada’s skies safe while supporting communities coast to coast to coast.
Sound like something you’re interested in? Here’s what you need to apply:
  • Basic eligibility includes being at least 18 years old and having a high school diploma or equivalent. Medical certification, background checks, and drug testing (including cannabis) are required.
  • Specific aptitudes and abilities — including clear communication, teamwork, situational awareness, and the ability to visualize aircraft movement in three dimensions.
  • Relocation is required. Initial postings are based on operational needs, with greater flexibility later. Current openings are for Winnipeg and the surrounding region.
Whether you're ready to start something new or know someone seeking meaningful work, we encourage you to explore this opportunity or share it within your community.
We’re accepting applications for Winnipeg and the surrounding region until January 31.

Thank you for helping us connect with passionate people who want to serve and support communities across Canada.
