Drive commercial discipline. Manage labour productivity, overtime, controllable costs and revenue capture while balancing safety, service quality and operational resilience.
Lead a fair and accountable culture. Manage performance, grievances and conduct matters promptly and consistently, working within applicable enterprise agreements, policies and employment obligations.
Improve how we operate. Use operational data, passenger feedback and performance trends to identify risk, remove recurring service failures and embed continuous improvement.

Your Profile

You are an established aviation leader who understands the operational reality of passenger services and can move confidently between the terminal floor, airline client meetings and workforce-performance conversations.

Essential aviation experience. Recent, demonstrated management experience leading airport passenger services for an airline or ground handling provider in a complex commercial airport.
Passenger operations expertise. Strong knowledge of check-in, departure control systems, travel-document and boarding requirements, arrivals, transfers, baggage service recovery and irregular operations.
Large-team leadership. A proven record of leading Supervisors and sizeable multi-shift workforces, with experience in coaching, performance management, engagement and talent development.
Operational judgement. The ability to remain composed, visible and decisive during delays, cancellations, system issues, resource constraints and other time-critical operational events.
Airline client management. Experience managing airline relationships, performance scorecards, SLAs or Ground Handling Agreements, with confidence presenting performance outcomes and recovery plans.
Safety and compliance leadership. A practical understanding of aviation safety, security, quality assurance, regulatory training and audit requirements.
Workforce and commercial capability. Strong workforce-planning, rostering and cost-management skills, together with experience applying enterprise agreements in an operational environment.
Influence and communication. Credible written and verbal communication skills, strong stakeholder judgement and the ability to build alignment across airline, airport and internal teams.
