You will operate directly within a fast-paced manufacturing environment spanning both the FAL production floors and the Flight Line. This role blends hands-on local execution with international cross-functional collaboration, requiring close communication with teams across the U.S. and Canada.

Your Challenges

  • Outstanding Work (OSW) Management: Serve as the central operational escalation point for the FAL and production teams to prioritize critical issues, deploy robust contingency plans, and safeguard the production schedule.
  • Cost Management & Financial Recovery: Own the tracking, verification, and financial validation of OSW costs incurred by Supplier On-Site Support (OSS) teams; drive assertive commercial claims and negotiations with suppliers to recover financial losses.
  • FAL Quality & Continuous Improvement: Partner with the conformance management team to align supplier liability, analyze recurrent damages on supplied parts, and deploy daily continuous improvement methodologies to reduce damage inflows.
  • Supplier Governance: Enforce strict adherence of Cabin OSS teams to Airbus processes, measuring and driving supplier operational reactivity to achieve peak customer satisfaction.
  • Technical Leadership & Mentoring: Train, coach, and mentor Cabin Procurement support employees while initiating and steering complex cross-functional projects (such as HoVs surveillance and new supplier introductions) across diverse stakeholder groups.

  • Experience: Minimum of 8 years of professional experience handling non-conformity management, Supply Chain operations, or industrial project management within the aerospace industry.
  • Industrial & FAL Competency: Deep understanding of global aerospace manufacturing ecosystems, operational rework mechanisms, and Final Assembly Line (FAL) business drivers.
  • Commercial Assertiveness: Strong negotiation and claim management skills to robustly safeguard Airbus’s financial, contractual, and business interests in supplier discussions.
  • Data & Tools Proficiency: High proficiency in data analytics and visualization tools (SAP, HMS, and Google Workspace) to transform raw supplier data into automated dashboards and actionable business intelligence.
  • Communication & Languages: Excellent verbal and written presentation skills in English. Proficiency in French is highly appreciated to facilitate smooth, daily exchanges with the Canada-based teams (Mirabel).
  • Autonomy & Resilience: A proven track record of operating independently on-site while managing operational emergencies and mitigating assembly-line disruptions under intense pressure.

Physical Requirements

  • Ability to actively work within an industrial manufacturing plant, Final Assembly Line (FAL), and flight line environment.
  • Willingness and ability to travel approximately 10% domestically and internationally based on departmental and program needs.

This job requires an awareness of any potential compliance risks and a commitment to act with integrity, as the foundation for the Company’s success, reputation and sustainable growth.
