About Virgin Australia Group

We’re the airline that’s always done things a little different. Our way. The Virgin way. For us, flying is so much more than simply taking off and landing (although we understand that is quite important). It’s about going the extra mile, in the air and on the ground, to create authentic experiences that put our guests firmly at the heart of everything we do.

With the airline well and truly ramped up again, and a growing fleet of Boeing 737 aircraft (our fleet has already grown by more than 50% in the past two years, and we expect more to come) a rare opportunity has opened for a Defect Support Engineer to join our Technical Operations team.

What you will be doing

The Maintenance Leader is responsible for safety, production, people and leadership. The role is commercially as well as technically focused, realising cost effective results in the production of aircraft maintenance services.

Additionally, you will be responsible for:

  • Ensuring that safety is the first priority in managing the activities of the team
  • Contribute, develop, implement and monitor strategies to eliminate maintenance errors.
  • Ensuring production schedule requirements are met, on time and to prescribed procedures and standards
  • Contributing to profit by ensuring cost effective use of resources and facilities
  • Ensure that all equipment is maintained in a safe operating condition and where appropriate within scheduled calibration
  • Allocating and ensuring that timesheets and other records are accurately recorded and authorised
  • Motivating the crew to seek continuous improvement in their performance and ensure that good performance does not go unnoticed

What you need to be successful:

  • Supervisory experience and an ability to motivate staff and build a successful and productive team
  • Extensive industry experience in Line or Base Maintenance Management role
  • Demonstrated ability to influence and engage a variety of stakeholders
  • Sound capability to research, problem solve and analyse performance
  • Thorough understanding of the CASA and EASA airworthiness requirements

What you’ll get from us:

  • Great fares – domestic and international travel benefits for you, your family and your friends.
  • Industry discounts – lounge membership, hotels, travel insurance, car hire, tours, and retail – you name it, we have a deal for it.
  • Health and wellbeing – access to discounted fitness programs.
  • Corporate health insurance – multiple offers across multiple partners to suit your individual lifestyle.
  • Diverse career paths and career development
