Avion Express, a leading global provider of narrow-body ACMI (Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance, and Insurance) services and part of Avia Solutions Group, is announcing 250 new pilot positions available worldwide for commercial pilots holding either EASA or ICAO licenses.
This announcement is part of the annual recruitment season, launched under the slogan “We take care of you. We take care of everything.”
The message reflects the nature of the ACMI business model and highlights Avion Express’ commitment towards the flight crews operating on its behalf.
Avion Express, looks forward for Captains and First Officers to join its operations in various regions across five continents.
The company maintains a well-established presence in Europe, with pilots representing almost all EASA member states, while also expanding its reach globally.
A particular focus this year will be placed on Latin America, including Brazil, Mexico, Peru, Chile, Argentina, and other countries.
According to Kristina Mateikaite-Riepsiene, Head of Crew Recruitment at Avion Express, the company’s global network and the specifics of ACMI operations offer valuable opportunities for professional pilots seeking diverse flying experience.
Kristina Mateikaite-Riepsiene says: “What we hear from pilots who fly with us about the ACMI model is that it’s a perfect environment to build strong skills and advance their careers.
“Firstly, we have partnerships with many global airlines, which means pilots have the opportunity to take off from different airports, fly various routes, and gain valuable experience that is highly beneficial for their future careers.
“For ICAO license holders, ACMI is also an excellent place to start the license conversion process if they wish to do so, as the company provides strong support throughout the process.
“Additionally, working with colleagues of different nationalities helps our pilots grow personally and integrate easily into a diverse community,”
“Pilots often mention that ACMI operations allow them to discover different countries and cultures. With flexible rosters, many spend time based abroad and later have several days off at home. For many, this balance is a significant advantage.
“The ACMI service provider is currently seeking Captains and First Officers for this operational season. Avion Express is the largest ACMI operator worldwide by number of flights.
“Each year, we open a significant number of pilot positions each season to ensure sufficient operational capacity for the growing demand across both summer and winter periods.
“Typically, our activity increases in Europe during the summer and shifts toward Latin America and Asia in winter”.
