Here's what you need to know upfront:

• Pay: £40.00/hr (Umbrella) or £29.89/hr (PAYE)

Now, let's talk about the role.

You'll be the central point of contact for the deployed fleet, making real-time decisions that directly impact aircraft readiness and recovery. It's a hands-on, high-responsibility position where you'll coordinate with logistics, planning, and maintenance teams to keep operations running smoothly.

Your day-to-day will include:

• Monitoring aircraft serviceability and managing recovery efforts for AOG situations
• Liaising with Part 145 maintenance organisations and ensuring compliance with operational limitations
• Providing daily operational updates and escalation briefs
• Supporting out-of-hours operations, including raising event reports and handling technical queries
