NetherlandsJob Description
About the Company Since 1965 Transavia has made flying accessible to everyone. Its passengers enjoy annual holidays, family visits abroad and new destinations across Europe and North Africa. This is done together with more than 3,000 colleagues — in the air in the cockpit and cabin, and on the ground in technical services and the offices — all working to deliver a genuinely great journey, now and in the future. Role Overview Transavia is looking for experienced Ground Engineers (GWK) or Certifying Technicians who enjoy the more complex technical challenges and are keen to take on Aircraft On Ground (AOG) situations.
