Raleigh, North Carolina, United States Jet Excellence Full time

Vice President of Maintenance

Fleet:
 Citation X Floating Fleet

The VP of Maintenance is accountable for the safe, compliant, and efficient operation of a floating fleet of 25+ Citation X aircraft. This role leads the design and execution of a maintenance program that maximizes aircraft availability while maintaining high standards for safety, regulatory compliance, and quality. The focus is on building repeatable, scalable systems rather than relying on constant overtime or last minute problem solving.

Requirements:

  • FAA Airframe and Powerplant (A&P) certificate required
  • Minimum of 10 years of aircraft maintenance experience, with significant time in turbine business aviation
  • Minimum 5 years of maintenance leadership experience in a Part 135 or comparable operation, preferably as a Director of Maintenance (DOM)
  • Experience supporting Citation X or similar high performance business jet aircraft
  • Strong knowledge of FAA regulations, OEM maintenance programs, MEL management, and reliability concepts
  • Proven experience managing vendors, MROs, and AOG events in a time sensitive environment
  • Demonstrated ability to lead maintenance teams with a focus on safety, sustainability, and accountability
  • Calm, decisive judgment and willingness to stop operations when safety or compliance is at risk

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Inspection Authorization (IA)
  • Experience supporting floating fleets or geographically dispersed aircraft
  • Familiarity with CAMP maintenance tracking systems
  • Experience operating in ARGUS or WYVERN audited environments

Dutie Highlights:

This position oversees all aspects of fleet maintenance, including scheduled and unscheduled maintenance planning, MEL management, parts sourcing and logistics, vendor and MRO relationships, and AOG response. The VP of Maintenance owns dispatch reliability and aircraft uptime, using reliability data, trend analysis, and technician feedback to anticipate issues before they disrupt operations.

People leadership is a core responsibility. This role builds and leads a professional maintenance organization that values technical excellence, predictable workloads, and a strong safety culture. Responsibilities include monitoring duty time and fatigue risk, mentoring lead technicians, and ensuring technicians are supported rather than overextended.

The role is also responsible for maintenance cost stewardship without compromising safety or people. This includes proactive planning, intelligent task bundling, strategic use of vendors, and reducing avoidable costs driven by poor planning, repeat discrepancies, or last minute schedule changes. Clear communication with leadership around fleet health, maintenance risk, and cost trade offs is essential.

What Success Looks Like:

  • Management of a fleet that is safe, predictable, and consistently available without burning out the team, supported by maintenance systems leadership can trust.

Benefits:

  • 15 Annual PTO Days
  • 7 Paid Holidays
  • Medical, Dental, Vision Insurance covered for employees
  • 401k
