We believe that mission success does not start with the mission itself. It begins with our people.
The position is to assist the Crew Chief in being responsible to the Chief Engineer, for the safety, regulatory compliance and operational performance of all Part-145/A8-23 aircraft maintenance activities within the Aircraft Maintenance department and detached locations, essential to the effective delivery of customer contractual requirements. In addition, the Supervisor will provide support to the team with engineering decisions and provide guidance regarding personal and team development.
Aircraft Maintenance is highly regulated with safety, quality and regulatory compliance being held as the first priority. The Supervisor must drive and deliver a culture of safety first ahead of schedule, with the highest level of safety and regulatory compliance across all relevant areas. Promoting SHE and Security in relation to the performance of fleet maintenance activities is essential. Operational activities are based around customer requirements; therefore, the preparedness to work additional hours and deploy on detachments in the UK and overseas, is essential to deliver a successful maintenance business.
