About the role

We are looking for an experienced B1.3 Licensed Maintenance Engineer to join our team at HeliTSA as a Helicopter Maintenance Type Training Instructor.

You’ll deliver theoretical and practical type training on Bell, Leonards and Airbus helicopters to engineers from Australia and around the world.

The position is predominantly based in Brisbane, Australia, with some travel required to deliver courses at other locations across Australia and internationally.

Between courses and training development, instructors remain actively involved in helicopter maintenance activities, helping to maintain their practical skills and hands‑on experience.

You will start alongside our experienced instructors, co‑developing and shadowing courses before running your own.

Key responsibilities

• Deliver theoretical and practical helicopter type training
• Develop and maintain training course material
• Carry out helicopter maintenance activities to maintain practical skills
• Assist with facility and equipment maintenance

About you

• Current CASA or EASA B1.3 Licence
• Maintenance experience on Bell, Leonardo and/or Airbus helicopters
• Strong communication and organisational skills
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team
• Competent basic computer skills
• Experience with one or more of the following helicopter types is highly regarded: Bell 412, Leonardo AW139, Airbus EC135, Airbus H145, Airbus H160, Airbus H175

What we offer

• Flexible working arrangements and hours
• Opportunity to work from home when not delivering training or undertaking hangar‑based activities
• Fully funded helicopter type training courses
• Opportunities to gain experience and qualifications on additional helicopter types
• A supportive and collaborative team environment
• A varied role combining training, technical maintenance, with domestic and international travel
• Collaborative mentoring from our whole team

About us

HeliTSA was founded by two senior licensed aircraft engineers who spotted a gap in the industry. There simply weren’t enough instructors who had actually worked on the aircraft themselves and could teach from real‑world experience, rather than just talk about it.

We pride ourselves on keeping our instructors active in the field, hands‑on with the tools and current with industry knowledge. We believe that practical experience makes all the difference when it comes to delivering quality training.

For us, training is far more than a regulatory checkbox. We understand what engineers need to take away from a course, combining technical knowledge with practical, real‑world experience that can be applied on the job.
