TAL's take
Strong operational role within a well-established aviation services provider, though the JD is heavy on administrative and general procurement tasks.
Role responsibilities are clearly defined within the context of aviation procurement, though slightly broad in scope.
Must haves
- University degree
- 7 years of airport operational experience
- Expert level knowledge of passenger services, cargo, and ground operations
- Detailed knowledge of IATA Standard Ground Handling Agreements
- Strong negotiation and presentation skills
