International MRO Recruitment

International MRO Recruitment

The Situation

A large Aerospace Defence business was awarded significant MRO contracts to carry out maintenance work on Embraer & Airbus aircrafts in Europe. 

Existing staff numbers & technical skillsets were not at sufficient levels to carry out the projects. 

Due to tight deadlines, VHR was asked to provide a fast and seamless, yet cost-effective recruitment solution which would comply with the Aerospace Defence company's stringent quality expectations and approvals. 

The Solution

Recruitment of multiple teams of contractors incorporating Licensed Engineers, Aircraft Fitters, Sheet Metal Workers, Aircraft Painters, Composite Technicians and CNC Machinists.

VHR co-ordinated flights, local accommodation and local transportation for all contractors.

All required documentation provided by VHR for the Aerospace Defence quality department.

Regular on-site and off-site coordination between VHR's Account Manager and Defence recruitment team and the client including 1st-day check-ins for all contractors.

The Outcome

  • Continued partnership between VHR and the Aerospace Defence business, resulting in over 140 contractors recruited within maintenance and production. 
  • Implementation of streamlined timesheet system. 
  • Continued market awareness advice provided by VHR.
