We know who we are, and we are confident in our approach— but we don’t take ourselves too seriously.

Your Team

Join Flair’s Maintenance team as a Records and Planning Technician, where precision, organization, and regulatory knowledge are essential to supporting safe and efficient aircraft operations. Reporting to the Maintenance Planning Supervisor, you will be responsible for maintaining aircraft records, coordinating scheduled maintenance for aircraft, engines, and components, and ensuring compliance with all regulatory requirements through advanced maintenance tracking systems. In this role, you’ll play a key part in keeping our fleet airworthy and compliant while supporting the day‑to‑day planning of maintenance activities. The position requires a high level of accuracy, independence, and the ability to manage physical tasks when needed. Some travel and shift work, including evenings or weekends, may be required depending on operational needs.

This position is based on‑site at our Calgary, AB office.

• Prepare documentation for lessor inspections, including certificate packages and data retrieved from the maintenance tracking system.
• Generate forecasted maintenance reports to support planning and compliance.
• Coordinate and schedule all planned and requested maintenance, ensuring operational limits are not exceeded.
• Compile and prepare inspection packages and associated indexes.
• Ensure availability of personnel, parts, and special equipment for scheduled maintenance activities.
• Liaise with Flight Operations to coordinate aircraft positioning for maintenance.
• Communicate with contracted Aircraft Maintenance Organizations (AMOs) to confirm availability of manpower, parts, tools, and ensure timely completion of work packages.
• Support line maintenance planning as needed by printing and distributing 14‑day forecasts and work packages to line maintenance bases; plan or re MELs as requested by MCC.
• Report any findings, discrepancies, or feedback to the maintenance planning team.
• Assist with hangar planning and coordination as required.
