Monitor employee attendance and address concerns in accordance with company procedures.

Provide meaningful input into employee performance evaluations and development discussions.

Work alongside the team to complete sheet-metal and composite inspections, repairs, modifications, and installations.

Interpret aircraft drawings, structural repair manuals, technical data, and process standards.

Ensure completed work meets applicable regulatory, quality, safety, and company requirements.

Ensure worksheets, technical logs, tracking updates, and other required maintenance records are complete, accurate, and submitted on time.

Promote a safe, respectful, organized, and productive working environment.

WHAT YOU’LL BRING:

A valid Transport Canada AME “S” licence is strongly preferred.

Significant aircraft structures experience, including sheet-metal and composite repairs.

Previous experience leading or supervising aircraft-maintenance personnel.

Strong technical knowledge of aircraft structural inspection, repair, fabrication, and modification practices.
