· Order Management: Raise, track, and reconcile Technical Purchase Requisitions (PR) and Purchase Orders (PO) using aviation ERP software (such as AMOS or SAP Ariba).

· Float Management: Monitor minimum/maximum stock limits for aircraft rotables, expendables,



and consumables to minimize overstock expenses while ensuring zero stockouts.

· Emergency Sourcing: Drive 24/7 critical sourcing operations during AOG emergencies, negotiating urgent part loans, borrows, or fast-track purchases.

· Logistics Coordination: Collaborate with international freight forwarders and customs brokers to expedite emergency air cargo shipping and clear aerospace shipments through customs seamlessly.

4. Regulatory Compliance & Quality Assurance

· Traceability Verification: Enforce 100% compliance by ensuring every airframe, engine, or component arrives with proper authorized release certificates (e.g., DGCA Form 1, FAA 8130-3, or EASA Form 1).

· Audit Readiness: Maintain impeccable, audit-ready data archives detailing part provenance and back-to-birth traceability for civil aviation regulatory reviews.

Required Skills & Experience

· Education: Bachelor’s degree in Aviation Management, Aeronautical Engineering, Supply Chain Management, or a related commercial discipline.

Experience:

o For Specialist: 3–5 years of core procurement experience within a scheduled commercial airline or MRO.

o For Manager: 7+ years of experience, with a proven track record managing technical aviation categories (Rotables, APUs, Landing Gear).
