Jetstar Engineering: A team that takes off together
We rely on our engineers to deliver our superior safety standards, up to the second. They’re the trouble-shooters, glitch-fixers and tech-experts who make sure we take to the sky safely.
As part of our investment in our future, we launched the Melbourne Engineering Precinct, which is the main maintenance hub of our network. 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.
Ready for your next adventure?
Reporting to our Lead Line Planner, your primary focus in this role will be the planning of the scheduled and unscheduled maintenance tasks, undertaken by various Approved Maintenance Organisations (AMO's). You will play a critical role in ensuring compliance of the Jetstar Airways fleet and maintaining operational integrity.
As Maintenance Planner, accountabilities will include:
- Assisting the Maintenance Operation Centre (MOC) in providing on-going compliance control of both scheduled and unscheduled maintenance activity
- Maintaining compliance control of all work packages issued via TRAX
- Demonstrating commitment to CASA and other industry regulatory authorities that continued airworthiness management and company standards can be sustained by sound process and procedures as detailed in the Maintenance Operations Procedures Manual
- Providing Engineering input to Jetstar Operations Control Centre (JOCC) decision making processes for disruption management
- Assisting in the control of schedules with the Aircraft Allocations Coordinator
- 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.
We’re on the hunt for somebody who has:
- A detailed understanding of Aircraft Line / Base Maintenance and Operations
- Experience in Aircraft Maintenance Planning
- Ability to communicate & negotiate effectively with internal and external stakeholders
- Understanding of TRAX, Rocade and Microsoft Office applications
- Highly motivated and committed to continuous improvement
- Able to build effective working relationships and thrive in a team environment
