  • Manage service orders through SAP and coordinate shipping and receiving of parts.

  • Demonstrate leadership in planning, organization, and compliance oversight.

What You Bring
  • FAA Airframe & Powerplant (A&P) Certificate.

  • Minimum of 5 years’ experience working on corporate aircraft

  • Proven troubleshooting skills and the ability to interpret mechanical engineering drawings.

  • Strong communication skills for interacting with customers and colleagues at all levels.

  • Prior leadership experience with the ability to train and mentor team members

  • Valid driver’s license, passport, and ability to obtain necessary certifications and security credentials (SIDA badge, Ground Support Equipment certifications, etc.).

  • Ownership of a basic hand tool set with proper inventory and control.

  • Strong organizational skills with the ability to work independently and lead projects to completion.
