Building a Career at AI

As a leading Procurement and Inventory Management Service provider, the AI Group is a dynamic, fast moving company, committed to becoming an Employer of Choice in the Aerospace industry.

The company is set for continuing significant growth, with the right business model in place, to capitalise on the emerging outsourcing market as aerospace companies seek to gain cost and efficiency advantages through outsourcing parts, procurement and inventory management. We are redefining the supply chain in the world of aircraft parts and to do this, we need you!

Culture and philosophy:

As a rapidly growing business, AI is an innovative learning organisation. Passionate about our customers, we are always driving our business forward by using state of the art technologies to ensure we deliver exceptional performance.

This value is reflected in our approach to staff: motivated to succeed and challenged to constantly develop as individuals, AI offers our staff an opportunity to join a diverse, global team who are working in partnership towards one vision of total customer satisfaction. Our customers operate 24/7 which means that sometimes we have to go that extra mile to make sure their aircraft are ready to leave on time and, free of defects.

Providing comprehensive training and development for all staff, AI is committed to ensuring all our staff advance and grow in line with company expectations. We pride ourselves on our responsiveness to customer needs and this provides great opportunities for individuals and teams to work to make a difference.

Our open-door management policy allows staff to share ideas at every level, ensuring that by working together we become a smarter organisation that thinks creatively, acts decisively and delivers rapidly to meet global needs.

We want to inspire you to rise to any challenges presented and will allow you the opportunity to develop the skills and capabilities to achieve in a constantly changing environment.

AI is an Equal Opportunities employer. It is AI’s policy to recruit, hire, train and promote employees in all job categories and at all levels without regard to race, colour, religion, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, age or disability. 

What we are looking for?

In order to create a working environment that attracts, develops and retains excellence, we recruit only the best to our teams.

In addition to a skills match with those of our vacancies, we look for enthusiasm and energy, a willingness to achieve and the ability to drive the company forward through pro-active thinking and vision. In return for a rewarding career in the aerospace industry, we require committed, quick-thinking professionals to represent AI on a daily basis.

The kind of positions we recruit for include: supply chain specialists, purchasing and procurement roles; demand planning and inventory management specialists; commercial analysts; quality, warehouse and distribution personnel; onsite account managers; project implementation managers and finance staff. Related industry experience can be a great advantage but for most positions it is by no means essential.

As we focus increasingly on using information technology to support our business and our customers, we are also looking to build up our team of IT specialists, including business analysts, programmers (.Net), application and infrastructure support technicians and project and programme managers.

Where do we work?

We have established offices in the UK (New Barnet and Stansted), Hong Kong, Los Angeles and Melbourne. Our office in Los Angeles opened recently and will be recruiting for purchasing and procurement specialists.
In addition, we have staff working at our customer sites in Stansted, UK, Dublin, Ireland, Xiamen, PRC, Chep Lap Kok and Tseung Kwan O in Hong Kong and Sydney, Australia.

Pay and benefits:

We provide a competitive range of pay and benefits targeted to each market where we operate. All staff have the opportunity to enhance their reward through our performance-based bonus scheme which takes into account both company and personal performance.

How to apply:

The recruitment process:
