Workshop Team Leader / Workflow Specialist
Pay: £16 per hour
Contract: 6 months, with the possibility of going permanent
Shift: 4 on / 4 off, 6:30am-6:30pm
Training: Monday-Friday initially
The Role
We are looking for an experienced aviation workshop professional who is ready to take the next step into a leadership role.
You'll be working in an Aircraft Wheels and Brakes workshop, helping to manage the daily workload and supporting a team of around 15-20 people alongside the existing permanent Team Leaders.
This is a great opportunity for someone who has good technical experience but doesn't want to stay in a purely hands-on workshop role and wants to develop into a leader.
What You'll Do
- Plan and organise the daily workshop workload.
- Allocate jobs to technicians and make sure work is completed on time.
- Monitor jobs through the workshop and help remove any delays.
- Work with Stores to make sure parts and materials are available.
- Help improve turnaround times and workshop efficiency.
- Support and motivate a team of around 15-20 people.
- Help with training and developing technicians.
- Make sure health & safety and 5S standards are followed.
- Ensure all paperwork and maintenance records are completed correctly.
- Make sure work is carried out in line with aviation regulations and procedures.
- Support audits and quality inspections.
What We're Looking For
- 3-5 years' experience in an aviation MRO environment.
- Experience with aircraft wheels, brakes or landing gear is preferred.
- Previous Team Leader or Supervisor experience is useful, but not essential.
- A good understanding of EASA Part 145, FAA Part 145 or CAA regulations.
- Good problem-solving and communication skills.
- Experience with Excel and/or an aviation MRO system such as AMOS, SAP or Quantum.
- A strong focus on safety, quality and attention to detail.
This is not an entry-level role - you'll need solid workshop/aviation experience and the ambition to move into leadership.
