Flight Crew Finder Newsletter No1

Welcome to this first edition of the Flight Crew Finder Newsletter. This will be a monthly publication giving an update on what is going on in the European job market and will hopefully help our members find the jobs they are looking for. If you have any suggestions of subjects you would like to see covered in future editions please email to contact@flightcrewfinder.com.

In this edition of the Newsletter I will give you a taste of what Flight Crew Finder will be able to offer the job seeking pilot and cabin crew as well as the services that are open to employers. You will be able to see who is starting up and who is maybe looking for crew members in the next few months.

Flight Crew Finder is a company set up by two people with an idea. Richard Yeomans is pilot and flies for one of the world’s largest aircraft operators and has read thousands of CVs over the years. He has interviewed countless pilots and cabin crew and sat though very many simulator evaluations. The technical side of the house is the responsibility of seasoned web developer Karen Smallwood. She has developed sites for clients all over the world and her business Ice Shadow Studio will be taking the lead on Flight Crew Finder.

The motivation behind setting up Flight Crew Finder was born out of the economic down turn and reduction in flying jobs. We want to provide a service that will allow the best-qualified people to find the right jobs and make it as easy as possible for aircraft owners and operators to find the people they want. Any pilot or cabin crew member can sign up and store their CV for employers to search using type rating, geographical location, language and many other elements. We want to attract members from student pilots, flying instructors, seasoned freelance pilots, airline pilots and cabin crew. In fact, this is a website for anyone who wants to fly for a living.

Employers will be able to list a job on the site and we will be touring around Europe, meeting with as many aircraft operators to show them how simple the job listing process is. We are going to be working for our members trying to find the job you want and giving you an advantage over the rest. There will be many other features to membership and we will tell you about these over the next few months.

Please email us at contact@flightcrewfinder.com if you have any questions or requests for features you would like to see. There will be more news in the December Newsletter but for now here is a run down of the current job market………………..
