Safety and Compliance Surveyor

Job Title: Safety and Compliance Surveyor

Salary: £45,000 per annum dependent upon experience

Location: Teeside International Airport

An opportunity has become available to join an established aircraft management company at their site at Teeside International Airport. This is a full time, office- based role (unfortunately there is no opportunity for hybrid working), working 8am- 4.30pm, Monday to Friday.

Their services include aircraft disassembly, short and long term aircraft storage and preservation, line and base maintenance, return to service and ground and cargo handling services. They provide a full service tailored to meet the end-of-life planning and aircraft management needs of the operator, lessor and third-party owner-customers.

Established more than 45 years ago, the company has since purchased, leased and sold more aircraft engines in more countries over a longer period of time than any independent competitor. Outside of basic leasing and lending services, the company offers customized solutions to its customers enabling them to better budget and reduce costs, expenses, and reduce risk. Unlike many aircraft and engine lessors, they provide much more short-term leasing. This means regularly and closely interacting with the airlines, which provides better opportunities to develop more collaborative and customized solutions for each one.
