Aeroates Ltd is recruiting on behalf of its client for a Safety and Compliance Officer. Our client operates across several aviation approvals in Malta: a business aviation Air Operator Certificate (AOC) issued by the Civil Aviation Directorate (CAD), a ground handling licence, and a Part-145 maintenance organisation approval currently being established. The client manages fleet of five business jets and support operations through international line stations.
Key Duties and Responsibilities
- Draft, review and maintain the Safety Management Manual (SMM) and Compliance Monitoring Manual (CMM), keeping them current with regulation and operational reality.
- Coordinate safety and compliance activity across the group's aviation approvals (FBO, AOC and the emerging Part-145) and international line stations, working with subcontracted and in-house support staff.
- Support the nominated persons across departments with documentation structure, procedure writing and compliance — helping ensure consistency across the manual suite.
- Assist the Compliance Monitoring Programme: audit scheduling, tracking findings and corrective actions, and supporting close-out.
- Support the Safety Management System: occurrence and hazard reporting administration, risk assessment records and Safety Review Board material.
- Review, strengthen and take ownership of the Flight Data Monitoring (FDM) programme and develop safety trend monitoring — building the structure to capture, analyse and act on operational data, and feeding the findings into the SMS.
- Help prepare documentation for CAD audits, approvals and amendments.
- Track relevant EASA and Malta CAD regulatory changes and flag their impact on procedures.
