A growing luxury aviation company based in Scottsdale, AZ is seeking a CHIEF PILOT who is systems-driven, detail-oriented, possessing a competitive spirit with strong leadership skills, and willing to be an integral part in helping us execute and achieve our big vision.
You may be the ideal Chief Pilot for this position if you enjoy the nuances of private aviation, easily handle variety in your work, thrive in fast-paced environments, and manage rapid changes in schedules and priorities well. Keen on building a trustworthy and tight-knit relationship with the flight crew, you strive to create exceptional experiences for both your passengers and crew at all times. You are also, therefore, capable of and comfortable with providing friendly, optimistic service outside the cockpit, while using data and analytics to maximize flight efficiency and performance inside the cockpit.
If you are the ideal Chief Pilot, you would also be described as a âpilotâs pilotâ, one with significant real-world experience that has helped you build empathy for your team and remove barriers to getting better. Able to continuously hold your personal ego in check, you have an uncommon level of mental maturity, want to be an accessible mentor, are willing to share your time and expertise, and youâre committed to helping others develop and hone their skill sets. You are highly knowledgeable (but not all-knowing), demonstrating the curiosity and openness to explore new ideas and concepts brought to you by your team and peers, and proactively staying out ahead of technology and trends.
As the ideal Chief Pilot, you have outstanding communication skills and keep everyone in the âinformation loopâ. You are also open to inquiries, suggestions, and resolutions from all members of the aviation team. As an integral part of the Leadership Team, you are also a collaborative player, appreciating and understanding all functional areas of the company: maintenance, scheduling, flight operations, and business management. You also consistently strive to understand and rationally apply the companyâs mission, vision, and key objectives in all decision making.
