Our engineers are uniquely placed to enjoy a career that sees them developing skills across all functional areas of maintenance – line, intermediate and base activity. Our team also has the opportunity to work not only on Jetstar fleet, but customer aircraft – A320/21, B787 and A320 Freighter.   Our Melbourne Precinct is the proud home for our Apprentice Program.

  • Investigating and reviewing serious incidents and assisting in the implementation of corrective actions
  • Maintaining accurate aircraft standards to support optimised planning outcomes
  • Analysing technical, costing and planning issues with responsibilities for establishing standards, direction and ensuring technical / commercial / cost effective performance.
