Our Mission At Vertical Aerospace, we are pioneering the way for electric aviation. The Valo, our eVTOL (electric, vertical, take-off and landing), 'zero emissions' aircraft will set a new safety standard for how we will navigate the sky. We won't realise our mission following the same legacy processes and traditions our predecessors followed, instead, we want to 'redefine' aerospace best practices. We are growing quickly from a prototype business to a scaling SME, and the next few years will be critical to our success and delivering on our ambitious goals. Valo is targeting airliner-level safety certification in 2028 ahead of entering service with our airline and operator customers. What to expect As our Senior Project Certification Manager, you'll lead the certification programme from the early stages of design all the way through to type certification. You will be the key liaison between engineering, suppliers, and regulatory authorities globally.

Proactively identifying risks, resolving threats to schedule, and could-be obstacles to certification. Collaborating with suppliers to ensure their parts, processes and documentation satisfy certification requirements. Supporting continued airworthiness post-certification and managing modifications or changes. What you'll bring 10+ years of experience in aircraft type certification or major modification/STC/major regulatory engagements in aerospace, preferably with highly regulated domains. Strong foundation in regulatory/airworthiness standards (e.g. equivalent to CS/FAR Part 23/25/27/29 or their global analogues), software & hardware compliance standards (DO-178C / DO-254), environmental qualification (DO-160 or equivalent), and systems safety & reliability (ARP4754A, ARP4761 or equivalents). Proven experience in interacting with aviation authorities internationally, negotiating technical requirements/methods of compliance, and delivering projects through audit or authority review. Leadership & management experience: building teams, mentoring engineers, managing cross-disciplinary stakeholder interfaces. Strong project planning, risk management, configuration control, and problem-solving skills. Excellent communication: able to translate complex technical/certification issues into program-level strategy and reports.
