Mechanical & Avionics | Global Mission Aviation
If you’re an experinced Licensed Aircraft Maintenance Engineer who loves precision, problem-solving, and aircraft that must perform in tough environments… we’d love to talk to you. We’re looking for experinced engineers who are excited to pass on skills, build capability, and help national teams grow strong and independent.
At Mission Aviation Fellowship (MAF), every aircraft we maintain is part of a bigger story—serving remote communities where aviation is often the only lifeline.
Our aircraft operate in some of the most demanding environments in the world. Safety isn’t just important—it’s everything. We operate mainly single-engine turbine and piston aircraft, where attention to detail and deep technical expertise matter every day.
But just as important as keeping aircraft flying… is helping others learn to do the same.
We’re looking for LAMEs who don’t just fix aircraft, but who also:
Your legacy won’t just be safe aircraft—it will be skilled people who can carry the work forward long after you’ve left the Programme.
We currently have vacancies in Papua New Guinea (x2), Bougainville, Chad, Timor-Leste, & Guinea.
In the hangar, our typical days usually involve inspections. Much of our work is preventative so by carrying out inspections every 100 or 200 operational hours, we are able to catch most things before they become problems. Field repairs for the occasional break down in remote locations can provide interesting logistics and problem solving challenges that add to the variety in this amazing role. In some of our larger facilities, we’re also able to take on some bigger projects too, that might involve delving into parts of an aircraft not normally opened, to replace entire avionics systems, or stripping all of the paint off an aircraft to carry out structural repairs then repaint in our new colour scheme.
*NOTE: You will need to be able to obtain appropriate work permits for the country the position is based in*
