Take your B1 engineering career further with a growing aviation organisation

We are currently recruiting B1 Licensed Aircraft Engineers to join an established aviation engineering team, working on King Air aircraft in a professional and supportive maintenance environment.

As a B1 Licensed Aircraft Engineer, youll be responsible for carrying out aircraft maintenance and ensuring aircraft are maintained to the highest standards of safety, quality and airworthiness.

Youll work as part of an experienced engineering team supporting the continued availability and serviceability of the fleet.
