What they're building

Aircraft maintenance, engineering and maintenance planning moderate signal

Today: Passenger airline flying to New Zealand, Australia and the Pacific Islands (per its US site)

Roles: Aircraft Maintenance Engineer - Cabin Maintenance · CNC Machinist / Aircraft Machinist · Ground Support Equipment Support Engineer · Airline Maintenance Planner (Forward Planner)

Inference: six engineering and maintenance postings suggest ongoing in-house maintenance and forward planning capacity in Auckland and Christchurch. There are five titles, with the forward planner posted in both cities. Requirements were not extracted, so this rests on titles only.

Supply planning and execution leadership (chapter leads) moderate signal

Today: Passenger airline flying to New Zealand, Australia and the Pacific Islands (per its US site)

Roles: Supply Planning Manager (Chapter Lead) · Supply Execution Manager (Chapter Lead) · Manager Supply Planning - Inflight (Chapter Lead)

Inference: three chapter lead roles in Auckland, one of them for inflight supply, suggest the company is filling supply planning and execution leadership within an existing chapter structure. Requirements were not extracted, so this rests on titles only.

Acquisition, lifecycle and trade marketing, including Sydney moderate signal

Today: Passenger airline flying to New Zealand, Australia and the Pacific Islands (per its US site)

Roles: Senior Marketing Acquisition Specialist - Fixed-Term Contract · Customer Lifecycle Marketing Specialist · Marketing Data and Technology Specialist · Direct Digital Marketing Specialist - Sydney · Trade Marketing Manager - Sydney - Fixed Term Contract

Inference: five marketing postings, three in Auckland and two in Sydney, suggest active hiring in acquisition, lifecycle and trade marketing for the New Zealand and Australian markets. Two of the five are fixed-term contracts. Requirements were not extracted, so this rests on titles only.

Flight crew and simulator instructor pipeline weak signal

Today: Turboprop (ATR) and jet fleets

Roles: Expression of Interest - Flight Simulator Instructor, ATR Fleet · Expression of Interest - First Officer, Turboprop Fleet · Expression of Interest - Jet Fleet Pilot

These are standing expressions of interest, two opened in July and August, not new requisitions. No next step is inferred.

Delivery, performance and continuous improvement roles weak signal

Today: Passenger airline flying to New Zealand, Australia and the Pacific Islands (per its US site)

Roles: Delivery & Performance Specialist – Performance Optimisation (Fixed-term) · Transformation & Delivery Specialist (Delivery & Performance Specialist) - Contractor · Programme Manager (Delivery Performance Specialist) · Senior Continuous Improvement Specialist

Four delivery and performance roles are posted in Auckland, two of them fixed-term or contractor. This is a weak, title-only signal, so no next step is inferred.

Connected aircraft platform engineering weak signal

Today: Passenger airline flying to New Zealand, Australia and the Pacific Islands (per its US site)

Roles: Senior Platform Engineer (Connected Aircraft)

A single platform engineering role for connected aircraft is posted. One role is a thin signal, so no next step is inferred.
