Emerald Airlines, Ireland’s newest regional airline and exclusive operator of the Aer Lingus Regional franchise, has announced its inaugural Aircraft Engineering and Maintenance Apprenticeship. The airline is looking for 6 candidates. Applications are open now and will close April 28.
The apprenticeship is carried out in collaboration with SOLAS, Ireland’s Further Education and Training Authority and Technological University Dublin.
Those who successfully complete the apprenticeship will be considered for full-time positions at Emerald Airlines. Successful applicants will split their time between classroom training in both Shannon and Dublin, and on-the-job training at the Emerald Airlines Engineering and Maintenance Facility at Dublin Airport.
Emerald Airlines Apprentices will be working primarily on a fleet of ATR72-600 aircraft and will get to be part of a small dynamic team working on the turbo prop aircraft. Aer Lingus Regional flights are operated by the ATR72-600. The ultra-low fuel burn aircraft emit up to 40% less CO₂ on these short, regional flights.
“This programme would be of particular interest to those interested in pursuing a career in the aviation industry, more specifically within Engineering and Maintenance departments,” said John Redmond, Line Maintenance Manager at Emerald Airlines. “We are thrilled to be providing a select number of candidates with an unmissable opportunity at Ireland’s newest regional airline.”
