Stansted Airport Winter Resilience | 2026/27 Competitive Rates (Shift Variances) | Paid Training | Airside Pass Provided
About the Role
Logic 360 Ltd.’s team has operated winter airside services at Stansted Airport since 2016. We are part of the airport's emergency support structure, providing specialist ground resources during winter weather events to keep operations moving when conditions get difficult. We are currently looking for Apron Tractor Drivers to join our pool ahead of the 2026/27 winter season. This is a call-out contract; you’ll be activated when snow or ice is forecast, working alongside a tight-knit and experienced team in a fast-paced, safety-critical environment.
If you hold a Class 1 / C+E licence, we want to hear from you too. Our Prime Mover (Runway clearance) roles require Class 1 entitlement, and we are building our pipeline for upskilling next season.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Operating tractors and support equipment to clear and treat aircraft stands on the apron
- Working as part of the wider airside emergency response team to maintain airport operations
- Following airside safety procedures and radio communications protocols at all times
- Responding quickly when called out — notice periods can be short when snow is forecast
- Working flexibly across days, nights, weekends, and bank holidays throughout the season
What We’re Offering
- Pay rates from £20 per hour, rising with unsociable hours, weekends, and bank holidays
- Premium rates available for self-employed Ltd Company workers
- Full Airside Security Pass and Airside Driving Permit provided — we handle the application
- All operational training is paid — you’re on the clock from day one
- Exposure to a broader portfolio of airport emergency and resilience contracts
- Part of an experienced team that has operated airside at Stansted for over a decade
- Straightforward payment process — PAYE, CIS, or Ltd Company
What We’re Looking For
- Valid UK driving licence — Cat B minimum; tractor or plant experience is preferred but not essential
- Experience operating tractors, agricultural equipment, heavy plant, or airside ground support vehicles – preferred not essential
- Happy and fit to work in cold and challenging outdoor conditions
- Available at short notice when weather events are forecast
- Flexible availability across days, nights, weekends, and bank holidays
- Able to pass a full airside security clearance (5-year background check, Right to Work in UK)
Previous airside experience is an advantage, but not essential. If you can drive plant, work safely, and respond quickly - we will train you.
The Process
Once you apply, you’ll complete a telephone screening and, if suitable, we’ll progress your security clearance. The full pass process typically takes 2-4 weeks from document submission. Operational training dates will be confirmed once your pass is approved. Start date is subject to pass clearance - so the sooner you get in touch, the better.
