Jet Airways Ramps Up Hirings And Wants Former employees To Apply

Jet Airways has begun hiring for multiple positions after its air operator certificate was revalidated by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) on May 20. The granting of an air operator certificate (AOC) will allow the airline to resume commercial flight operations for the first time since 2019, when it was grounded due to financial problems.

Jet Airways, looking to resume flight operations in the next quarter (July-September 2022), had earlier announced vacancies in its operational, marketing and network planning departments. The airline started the recruitment process for the sales department on Thursday. Jet Airways invited “high-performing sales professionals” to apply as it announced eight roles in the sales and customer relations teams.

“We are seeking high-performing sales professionals who can help develop and take Jet Airways sales to the next level and beyond,” the airline wrote as it listed eight positions with the job description and eligibility criteria. The airline is hiring in Gurugram, Mumbai and Bengaluru.

Jet Airways said that applications are open to anyone who meets the eligibility criteria, and it would particularly encourage former Jet Airways employees to apply.

The airline had earlier announced it was hiring for VP of Marketing. The role is based out of Gurugram.

Last week, it had also announced hiring for operational roles and for its network planning team.

Jet Airways on Monday announced that it has appointed four new senior executives days after receiving its revalidated AOC, according to news agency PTI.

The airline has appointed Prabh Sharan Singh as chief digital officer, H R Jagannath as vice president of engineering, Mark Turner as vice president of inflight product and services and Vishesh Khanna as vice president of sales, distribution and customer engagement, it said in the statement.
