Careers

At Flying Spares, we recognise that a great workforce is central to the success of our business and therefore every single employee is important to us. We take great care to ensure that each new starter is not only capable of doing a great job for us but will also be a good fit for the ethos of our company.

We became proudly Employee Owned In February 2020. As an EO company, we encourage a real sense of ‘ownership’ amongst our colleagues, and have established an Employee Council to ensure that the voices of every employee can be heard. Our aim is to maintain a positive, empowered, and motivated workforce who will strive to build on Flying Spares’ excellent reputation long into the future.

We started life as a family-owned business in 1995 and that ‘family feel’ remains. Our Senior Management Team are friendly and approachable, and every member of staff is treated as an individual. We aim to be as flexible as possible and are particularly keen to encourage parents to be available for key events in their childrens’ lives. We feel that our low staff turnover and the fact that several of our colleagues have worked for the company for over twenty years, speaks volumes for the working environment that we have created.

We are always interested to hear from individuals who are keen to work with us so please feel free to send us your CV and a covering letter if working at Flying Spares appeals to you.
