B1 Licenced Engineer

Apply directAre you a B1 (or dual B1/B2) licensed engineer looking for a role with real autonomy, variety, and responsibility — not just another shift on the line? Join a well-established UK operator at in the Midlands, where you'll be a key part of keeping the network flying safely and on schedule.
This isn't a role where you're just ticking boxes. You'll be trusted to certify your own work, make judgement calls in a fast-moving operational environment, and play a hands-on part in both scheduled maintenance and AOG response - no two days quite the same.
What you'll be doing
- Certifying B1 work at in the Midlands, working closely with the Maintenance Manager and Production Planner
- Covering line station annual leave and responding to AOG call-outs - variety built into the role, with the trust to work independently
- Completing maintenance documentation, technical logs and work orders to a high standard
- Ensuring parts, tools and equipment are managed properly, working alongside logistics
- Following proper handover procedures in line with the MOE
- Keeping company premises to a high standard and flagging any facilities issues
- Staying current on instructions, regulations, and maintenance/quality procedures
- Speaking up through the SMS if you spot anything that doesn't meet the company's Flight Safety Standard — engineers who take ownership of safety, not just process, thrive here
- Taking on other reasonable duties as they arise — the role has scope to grow with you
What you'll bring
- Unrestricted UK B1 licence (or dual B1/B2) — EASA licence is a bonus, not a requirement
- At least one relevant type rating (B737 NG or B737 CL)
- 5+ years' aviation engineering experience
- A proactive, self-motivated approach - you don't wait to be told
- Strong communication skills, written and verbal
- Good judgement under pressure, in an environment that changes fast
- Sharp problem-solving and organisational skills
Why this role
You'll be part of a close-knit engineering team where your certification carries real weight, your input is heard, and the variety of the job - line, base, and AOG - keeps the work genuinely interesting. If you want a role where you're trusted to own your work and make a visible difference to the operation, we'd love to hear from you.
