Aviation Instructors

From the Flightline to the Classroom

Ready to pass on your knowledge?

This is a standout opportunity for experienced aviation engineers — particularly those from the Armed Forces — to transition into a rewarding instructor role, shaping the next generation of engineers across Europe’s leading maintenance organisations.

The Role

You’ll move from hands-on engineering into a structured training environment, delivering both theoretical and practical instruction.

Think: less spanners, more leadership, mentoring and knowledge transfer — without losing your technical edge.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Deliver EASA & UK CAA Part 66 training (theory + practical)
• Instruct on specialist aviation technical skills
• Support exams as an Examiner / Invigilator
• Maintain and improve training materials and course content
• Work in a professional, learner-focused environment

Why This Suits Ex-Military

If you’ve come from:

• Royal Air Force (Aircraft Tech / Avionics / Mechanical)
• British Army REME (Aviation / Aircraft support)
• Royal Navy Air Engineering

You’ll already have:

• Structured training experience
• Strong technical foundation
• Instruction / mentoring exposure
• Safety-critical mindset
• Leadership and discipline

What We’re Looking For

• Aviation maintenance qualification
• Ideally an instructional qualification (training can be provided)
• Minimum 5 years industry experience
• Comfortable delivering training and engaging groups
• IT literate (MS Office)
• Full UK driving licence
• Able to pass enhanced DBS

Package

• £48,000 – £54,000 DOE
• 25 days holiday + bank holidays
• Pension scheme
• Cycle to work scheme
• Full-time, permanent

The Bottom Line

This is a proper transition role — ideal if you're looking to step away from the tools but still stay within aviation, using everything you’ve learned to develop others.

we welcome applicants from all backgrounds.
