Permanent, Full Time
2Excel is an industry leader in specialised and innovative solutions for aviation’s most complex challenges. Our success is based on the talented and experienced people that make up our workforce.
We are currently seeking a Trials Pilot to join our friendly and exceptionally talented Capability Development (Cap Dev) Team. Cap Dev gets our customers’ and our own ideas airborne safely, compliantly, usefully, quickly, affordably and sustainably.
This is no ordinary pilot role. We are looking for independent thinkers that can plan, execute, and deliver flight trials for 2Excel’s clients. Our clients are at the cutting edge of commercial and military Capability and Development and the successful candidate will have the opportunity to engage with leaders from industry. You will need to gain an understanding of our clients’ unique challenges and requirements, delivering innovative test and evaluation solutions that exceed their expectations.
Operating across the UK and occasionally Europe, you will plan, lead, and execute flight trials for 2Excel’s clients on our fleet of B200 and PA31 aircraft, typically flying single pilot. The flying is hugely rewarding but challenging and your flying skills will need to be world-class.
In return, you can expect a great lifestyle and benefits package. Mainly operating from Humberside and occasionally other locations, Monday to Friday is the norm and weekend flying is rare. Remote working when not flying is also supported.
This role will particularly suit pilots with a military background, although we welcome applications from all high calibre pilots with the competence and passion to deliver at the cutting edge of industry. If this sounds like you, then we’d love to hear from you!
