About the role

American Airlines is seeking a Director of Labor Relations to lead union relations and ensure compliance with bargaining agreements across multiple workgroups.

The role requires extensive experience in negotiations, arbitration, and strategy with travel as needed. A strong background in industrial relations or related field is essential for success in this leadership position.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
