Job Description

Why AMS?

At Aerodrome Management Services (AMS), we play a critical role in supporting
safe, compliant and efficient aerodrome operations across
Australia—particularly in regional and remote communities. Our work enables
connectivity, supports industry, and keeps communities moving.

This isn’t a desk-bound compliance role. You’ll be hands-on
across multiple aerodromes, influencing real-world outcomes and shaping
aviation security standards where they matter most.

The Opportunity

We’re looking for an experienced Aviation Security Specialist to support
the delivery of aviation security functions across AMS-operated and client
aerodromes.

Working closely with the Aviation Security Manager, you’ll
be at the centre of compliance, assurance and operational delivery—supporting
everything from audits and Transport Security Programs (TSPs) through to
screening operations, accreditation and ASIC programs.

This is a role for someone who thrives on variety, enjoys
being in the field, and takes pride in maintaining high standards in a
regulated environment.

What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll support the Aviation Security Manager in delivering
aviation security across AMS-operated and client aerodromes, providing clear,
practical advice on legislative requirements and ensuring consistent compliance
with the Aviation Transport Security Act, regulations and screening notices.
You’ll stay across regulatory changes and assess their impact on operations,
including the administration and management of Documentation and its relevant
safety management system (OneReg).

You’ll conduct audits and inspections to ensure compliance
with Transport Security Programs, identifying risks and working with
operational teams to implement corrective actions and drive continuous
improvement.

This role will contribute to the development and ongoing
management of Transport Security Programs, ensuring documentation remains
accurate, current and compliant across multiple sites.

The Aviation Security Specialist will support screening
operations, including accreditation, training coordination, competency
requirements, SOP development and systems testing, ensuring operations meet
contractual and regulatory standards. This role will also be accountable for
the full lifecycle ownership of outports.

You’ll also assist with the ASIC program and broader
operational delivery, including contract compliance, reporting and invoicing,
supporting effective and compliant service delivery across AMS.

About You

The successful candidate will be detail-oriented, operationally minded and
confident working in a regulated aviation environment. You can balance
compliance with practicality and build strong relationships across teams and
clients.

You’ll bring:

• Experience
  in aviation screening operations and security environments
• Strong
  knowledge of aviation security legislation and regulatory frameworks
• Proven
  ability to manage audits, compliance and documentation
• Excellent
  communication and stakeholder engagement skills
• The
  ability to juggle multiple priorities across different locations

Qualifications

• Certificate
  II in Security Operations or Transport Security Protection
• Certificate
  IV in Training & Assessment
• Lead
  Auditor qualification (or willingness to obtain)
• Accreditation
  Assessor qualification (or willingness to obtain)

What Success Looks Like

• Strong
  compliance outcomes across AMS aerodromes
• Effective
  and consistent screening operations
• Accurate,
  up-to-date security programs and documentation
• Positive
  feedback from clients and operational teams
