You will ensure the highest standards of safety and availability for heavy twin-engine helicopters operating in diverse and often challenging environments. Primary Responsibilities: Maintenance Execution: Perform scheduled (Base/Line) and unscheduled maintenance, troubleshooting, and defect rectification on H225, Caracal, and Super Puma families. Field Support: Deploy on short-notice, punctual missions to customer sites to provide technical assistance, AOG (Aircraft On Ground) support, and specialized repairs. Compliance: Certify all work performed in accordance with EASA Part 145 standards (or equivalent local CAA regulations) and company Quality Management Systems. Customer Liaison: Act as a technical ambassador, providing guidance to customer maintenance teams and ensuring operational continuity. Safety & Quality: Maintain a "Safety First" culture, ensuring all tooling, parts, and procedures meet rigorous aviation standards. Required Qualifications & Skills: Licensing: Valid EASA Part 66 B1.3 License (or equivalent). Type Ratings Mandatory : Current Type Ratings on H225 (EC225LP) and/or AS332 (L1, L2, C1). Experience: Minimum 5+ years of hands-on maintenance experience on the specified types. Mobility: High flexibility for frequent travel and short-term assignments across Africa & the Middle East. Language: Proficiency in English (Technical and Spoken). French is a significant advantage for West African operations. Open for mobilization for deployment in Africa & Middle east countries for short missions. The "Plus" Factors: Additional Type Ratings on other Airbus Helicopters (e.g., H145, H135, or AS365/H155). Experience with military variants (Caracal/Cougar) and mission-specific equipment. Proven ability to work independently in remote or austere environments. Personal Profile: Resilient: You thrive in high-pressure environments and can solve complex technical problems with limited local infrastructure. Adaptable: You are culturally sensitive and comfortable moving between different countries and customer environments. Autonomous: You have a "can-do" attitude and the ability to make sound technical decisions in the field. This job requires an awareness of any potential compliance risks and a commitment to act with integrity, as the foundation for the Company’s success, reputation and sustainable growth.
