Licensed Aircraft Maintenance Engineers
We are continually seeking dedicated Mechanical and Avionics Engineers who are ready to serve in one of our many global locations.
We currently have vacancies in Papua New Guinea, Bougainville, Uganda, Arnhem Land, Timor-Leste, Mareeba & Guinea - Australia.
In the hangar, our typical days usually involve inspections. Much of our work is preventative, so by carrying out inspections every 100 or 200 operational hours, we are able to catch most things before they become problems. Field repairs for the occasional breakdown in remote locations can provide interesting logistics and problem‐solving challenges that add to the variety in this amazing role. In some of our larger facilities, we are also able to take on bigger projects, such as replacing entire avionics systems or stripping all of the paint off an aircraft to carry out structural repairs and repaint in our new colour scheme.
NOTE: You will need to be able to obtain appropriate work permits for the country the position is based in.
