Job title: Director of Avionics

If you've built avionics shops into well-run, profitable operations and you're ready to own a whole division, we should talk. We're looking for a seasoned aviation leader to run Avionics across shop work, installations and line maintenance, plus oversight of a component shop. This full-time, permanent role reports to the Senior Director of Operations for Canada; you'll lead through capable managers and supervisors, own the budget and the P&L, and help shape what work gets won and at what margin.
