Programme highlights

Through a series of placements, you’ll get under the skin of our business strategy team, maintenance planning, supply chain and logistics departments that make our engineering function tick. With a large fleet of over 250 aircraft, you’ll have a breadth of exposure to our incredible operation.

You could be organising the maintenance schedules for both our short haul and long haul aircraft; driving the long term strategy of maintenance considering efficiency, cost, time and quality of how we do things; or delivering projects such as which aircraft are entering and exiting in the business.

A big challenge of the role is managing the huge volumes of suppliers we work with to run our operation smoothly, so across all your placements you’ll be negotiating, influencing and managing stakeholders to deliver your projects effectively.

Development & progression

Through rotational placements and real responsibility, you’ll gain specialist knowledge and experience targeted to engineering strategic planning. Throughout the programme, your line managers will support and nurture your development – and ensure you are given the chance to learn and practise the skills required to succeed within engineering.

About you

You can come from any degree discipline. We are most interested in your passion for engineering, your talent for communication with your ability to think logically and strategically. You will have the fearlessness it takes to make change happen, and the composure to interact at senior level.
