Newcastle Airport is situated just 30 minutes north of Newcastle and acts as a gateway to the Hunter region, one of Australia’s most diverse tourism areas. The airport proudly welcomes more than 1.25 million passengers each year and provides an economic contribution in excess of $1.1 billion to New South Wales, and supports more than 3,300 jobs across the region. The airport is jointly owned by Newcastle City Council and Port Stephens Council, ensuring all dividends are ultimately returned to benefit our local communities. Newcastle Airport is recognised as one of Australia’s fastest growing airports. As a results-driven business, our vision is to be the airport the region deserves and we work hard to collaborate across our community for the benefit of the region as a whole. We have been recognised as an employer of choice and provide a range of exciting career paths across aviation, operations, property and commercial services as well as corporate services including finance, marketing and HR. We are committed to a culture of trust and accountability, and our staff aim for a work-life balance in an enviable lifestyle location. Identified as one of the key pieces of infrastructure in the Hunter region, we operate under a 60-year lease from Department of Defence, with a further 3 x 10 year options. We are committed to our region and to being the airport of choice for our region.
