Position Summary

You will serve as the central connection between clients, pilots, maintenance providers, vendors, and Jet Aviation teams.

The role is fast-paced and requires someone who can manage competing priorities, anticipate upcoming needs, remain calm under pressure, and communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders. If you are a proactive planner who takes ownership and enjoys solving complex aviation challenges, this opportunity offers meaningful responsibility and visibility.

This role is an office-based position, on a hybrid schedule, working from any of Jet Aviation’s US based locations (listed below). The posted salary ranges will default to that of your regional location and will not include any premiums. The baseline range for this exempt position will be as follows: $160,000 - $190,000 plus a performance-based bonus up to 10% of annual salary.
