Step into a broader, high‑impact role across airworthiness, product performance, and customer operations. A leading aviation components manufacturer is seeking a Technical Services & Airworthiness professional to step into a visible, hands‑on role at the intersection of engineering, compliance, and customer support.
This is an opportunity to move beyond a narrow technical remit and take ownership of real-world outcomes — working directly with airlines, MROs, and regulators to ensure product safety, performance, and compliance in service.
What’s on Offer - A genuine step-up opportunity with exposure beyond a typical technical role
- Competitive base salary
- Direct interaction with airlines, MROs, and the UK CAA
- Broad, varied scope across technical services and airworthiness
- A role with real ownership and visibility in a growing SME environment
- Opportunity to develop towards Head of Airworthiness level
- Flexible working approach, with a collaborative, office-led culture
The Role Reporting to the Chief Technical Officer, this position combines responsibility for Technical Services delivery and Airworthiness activities, with a roughly equal split across both areas.
You will play a key role in supporting customers in service, managing technical issues, and ensuring ongoing regulatory compliance. The role requires strong coordination across internal teams, as well as confident communication with external stakeholders.
Operating within a leaner SME structure, you will be expected to take initiative, step into issues as they arise, and drive them through to resolution.
Key Responsibilities - Provide technical support to airline and MRO customers, resolving in-service issues
- Act as a point of contact with regulatory authorities, including the UK CAA
- Support ongoing airworthiness and compliance activities
- Lead and contribute to investigations and root cause analysis
- Coordinate internal stakeholders to ensure timely and effective issue resolution
- Monitor product performance and support continuous improvement initiatives
- Represent the business in customer discussions and industry engagements
Candidate Profile - Background in aerospace engineering, airworthiness, or technical services
- Understanding of regulatory frameworks (Part 21 / CAA / EASA) advantageous
- Experience working with airlines, MROs, or external technical stakeholders
- Confident communicator, able to operate externally as well as internally
- Demonstrates ownership, initiative, and accountability
- Commercially aware, with an appreciation of in-service product impact
- Motivated by development and looking to step into a broader, more visible role
Why This Role Stands Out This role offers something many technical positions don’t — full visibility of the product lifecycle in operation. You’ll engage directly with the people using the product, the regulators overseeing it, and the internal teams supporting it, gaining a well-rounded perspective that accelerates both experience and progression.
For individuals looking to move towards a more senior airworthiness or technical leadership position, this provides a strong platform to develop the breadth, exposure, and confidence required.
