Job Description:

The DEA DCAM & King Air Airworthiness Engineer will act as the operational lead for the DEA UK CAMO department, directly supporting the Group’s Continuing Airworthiness Manager (CAM). This role is tasked with leading and developing the UK CAMO department and its supporting functions to maximise the efficiency of personnel supporting continuing airworthiness (CAw) activities.

The post holder will be directly responsible for the day-to-day management of G-reg (UK CAA) and 2-reg (Guernsey) aircraft, with dedicated support from a Diamond Airworthiness Engineer and CAMO support staff. While this role holds direct operational responsibility for the G-reg and 2-reg fleet activities, the CAM remains the accountable person for the overall CAMO approval and regulatory compliance.

Alongside the delivery of BAU CAMO activities on behalf of the CAM, a critical focus of this role will be driving Aircraft Maintenance optimisation for the King Air-type fleet. The objective is to ensure the fleet is “doing the right things” (optimising maintenance profiles and strategic fleet effectiveness) to complement the DEA Part 145, whose focus is “doing things right” (execution and compliance).
