I am wondering if BA has had these positions all the time or if BA is establishing this position after seeing how American operates their IOC? Talking to a lot of people at BA makes me think this may be a change in how they approach their operations. The CAA in the UK to my knowledge does not issue Dispatch certificates, and under this administration you need a US address to hold an FAA one these days so I am not surprised by the no certificate thing.

The British government makes a company prove that no one who already has a right to work there can do the job before they will let a company sponsor an employee. So if you can already work in the UK, good luck. If not, sorry.

For those Brits in here, Good Luck! If you are a USA applicant...51k equivalent is what seems to be the rate of pay. Search up B3 grade pay and you will see as it listed on the description. May not be everybody's "Cup o' tea"...cue the dry laughter.

I do have the legal right to work in the UK, but considering that would be quite the pay cut I think I will pass. But benefits like health care do need to be provided by companies in the UK due to the NHS so it may actually come out to more than what an American would think.
