Fleet Support Engineer
Luton | Full-time | Onsite
15%25 bonus • 7%25 pension • Staff travel benefits
You turn complex aircraft faults into clear, practical action when every minute matters.
You’re a licensed engineer who stays calm under pressure, enjoys solving difficult technical problems and knows how to guide others through safe, effective decisions. If you want your expertise to improve aircraft availability across a busy operation, this role puts you at the heart of it.
The opportunity
As a Fleet Support Engineer, you’ll improve aircraft availability by continuously monitoring fleet status, identifying reliability and operational performance issues, and providing front-line technical recommendations on current and emerging aircraft concerns.
You’ll support daily line activity and night stop maintenance on a continuous shift basis, helping to resolve AOG and out-of-service events, deferred defects and repetitive faults while protecting continued airworthiness.
“This role is about combining deep technical judgement with clear, practical support. We’re looking for someone who is curious, calm under pressure and ready to work with colleagues across the operation to get aircraft safely back into service.”
The team & culture
You’ll work closely with the Maintenance Operations Control & Planning teams, Engineers, Flight Operations and Fleet Technical Management. You’ll also liaise with aircraft manufacturers, vendors and outside agencies when faults or damage need support beyond the aircraft manuals.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The team shares knowledge openly and works at pace to find safe, workable solutions. You’ll build strong relationships across Technical Services and Flight Operations, using feedback from the network to help improve aircraft availability, processes and procedures.
What you’ll be doing
You’ll provide troubleshooting guidance and repair instructions for significant AOG and out-of-service events, supporting Maintenance Control and the wider network through daily line activity and night stop maintenance.
You’ll review maintenance records, technical logs and line station feedback to identify repetitive and recurrent defects, then provide structured technical recommendations on current and emerging fleet issues.
When standard troubleshooting guidance has been exhausted, you’ll work with Fleet Technical Management and aircraft manufacturers to develop further work instructions. You may also provide on-site support at line stations during AOG recovery.
What we’re looking for
You’ll hold a UK and/or EASA B2 Licence and hold, or have previously held, A320 family authorisation. You’ll also have a proven background in system fault-finding, including wiring checks and repairs.
Safety will be central to how you work. You’ll check information carefully, make robust technical recommendations and stay focused on aircraft compliance, airworthiness and practical operational outcomes.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
You’ll be able to adapt to the changing demands of a busy operation, communicate technical guidance clearly and build constructive relationships with colleagues, suppliers and aircraft manufacturers.
What you’ll get
- Competitive base salary + up to 15%25 bonus
- 7%25 employer pension contribution
- Private medical insurance
- 25 days holiday + bank holidays
- Annual credit towards an easyJet holiday
- Excellent staff travel benefits
- Flexible benefits package including share schemes
