Job Description

Description:

The Technician / Certifying Inspector is a key partner in supporting the day-to-day business and quality compliance at the repair station, ensuring maintenance processes are performed efficiently and properly in accordance with approved company policies, OEM instructions, and EASA Part 145 requirements.

Key Responsibilities

Inspection, Maintenance & Repair

Collaborate, Courage, Customer Focus, Drive Results

  • Inspect, repair, and return to service aviation components in accordance with relevant OEM technical publications, the company MOE, and EASA Part 145 Regulations.
  • Perform maintenance tasks to the standards specified in OEM data and company procedures.
  • Support OEMs in the assembly of new components.
  • Perform physical final inspection of components.

Certification and Compliance

Courage, Customer Focus, Drive Results

  • Issue Authorised Release to Service documentation for maintained components.
  • Understand and comply with customer-specific requirements and ensure work is aligned to those expectations.
  • Actively promote “Zero Harm” safety principles and participate in workplace safety management systems.
  • Support quality compliance processes and continuous improvement initiatives

Team Support and Development

Collaborate, Customer Focus, Courage

  • Support management in training and developing production teams.
  • Provide guidance to junior technicians when required.
  • Flexibly undertake additional tasks as assigned by leadership.

Our Values in Action:

  • Be humble and curious - You approach each task with a learning mindset and an openness to feedback.
  • Inspire, empower and prosper - You support those around you to succeed and take pride in collective achievements.
  • Team up to be better - You contribute proactively to teamwork and continuous improvement.

  • Build a better future - You uphold safety and quality today while seeking improvement for tomorrow.

The Small Print

This is a hands-on, fixed-term operational role requiring attention to detail, technical expertise, and a high degree of physical fitness. You will work within a safety- and compliance-critical environment where precision, traceability, and adherence to procedures are non-negotiable. You are expected to work flexibly, sometimes across shifts or weekends, and respond promptly to operational priorities. While the role is focused on inspection and certification, you will also actively support team development and cross functional collaboration.

Anyone who performs (or are available to perform) a safety sensitive aviation activity (SSAA) can be tested for drugs and alcohol without notice or as part of pre-employment checks.

Requirements:

Skills and Experience

  • Solid knowledge of EASA Part 145 regulations.
  • Previous Certification Authorisation for Release to Service activities to a Category C level.
  • Technical knowledge to undertake maintenance functions, including sheet metal work.
  • Experience reading OEM maintenance data and technical publications.
  • Proficient computer skills (Outlook, Word, Excel).
  • Physically capable of lifting, pulling, and pushing over 65 lbs.
  • Attention to detail and quality systems exposure.
  • Competent with hand tools, machinery, and equipment.
  • Excellent interpersonal and technical communication skills.
  • Self-motivated, flexible, and adaptable.
