What will you do today?

As a dynamic team member, you collaborate with your crew to efficiently onload and offload aircraft, ensuring safe and on-time performance.

What will you find with us?

  • Wellbeing: Every aspect of your wellbeing and of your family, matters to us. Our benefits go much further than the standard health, dental and pension. We want to give you support across all areas of your lifestyle – from your finances with our annual profit sharing award, to your mental health.
  • Flexibility: As you gain seniority, you can opt to trade shifts and build a pattern to fit your life. 
  • Travel: Keen to explore the world? Want to visit family and friends overseas? Our travel privileges give you, your family and your friends special rates so you can fulfill your travel dreams.
  • Diversity: You'll find a real mix of people in our ground crew family. Here, you'll do something different, with someone different, every single shift.
  • Training: You don't need airline, airport or aviation experience. Everyone starts with a fully paid, full-time, nine (9) to ten (10) week training program. And if you feel you want to take your aviation career in a new direction, we'll support you with training, development and tuition reimbursement.
