CAE Parc Aviation announces 80 new jobs and moves to new, bigger offices in Dublin

Dublin, Ireland, May 08, 2017 – (NYSE: CAE; TSX: CAE) – As the global aviation industry continues to grow, CAE Parc Aviation, the global leader in aviation recruitment, has moved to new larger premises and announced the creation of up to 80 new jobs based in their Dublin and Shannon offices over the next three years.

The roles will be for Recruitment Consultants to service the pilot recruitment needs of airlines across the globe and Aviation Engineers to work with the global Aircraft Leasing Industry in managing their fleet of aircraft. Headquartered in Dublin and with offices in Shannon, Dallas, Singapore, Beijing, Shanghai, Tokyo and Ho Chi Minh, CAE Parc Aviation is the global leader in aviation recruitment and provision of technical services to the aircraft leasing industry, employing over 100 highly specialised staff.

With operations in more than 30 countries, CAE Parc Aviation offers innovative recruitment services to some of the world’s largest airlines and provides support to their global customer base that is unique in the industry.

Commenting at the official opening of the company’s new office in Dublin, Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation, Mary Mitchell-O’Connor TD said: “CAE Parc Aviation has had a very active relationship with Enterprise Ireland’s overseas office network over the years, participating in several international trade events – indeed, it was a great pleasure to meet them in Tokyo on my trade mission to China and Japan last year. The Asia Pacific market is currently the fastest growing aviation market with the global share of passenger traffic currently at 31% and likely to increase to 42% by 2034 – this is a key region for CAE Parc Aviation. Demonstrating global ambition, the company’s story is one of success, and I wish the growing team here all the best for the future”.

CAE Parc Aviation MD, Frank Collins, said “Airlines around the globe are hiring pilots and other aviation professionals to enable them to grow. Our success in recruiting pilots to new and existing customers has resulted in us outgrowing our home of 35 years and moving these modern new premises. Enterprise Ireland has been hugely supportive and new business coming on stream in Asia, EMEA and the US means that our growth will continue creating new 80 jobs over the next three years, with 30 of those jobs coming onstream in 2017. ”

Julie Sinnamon, CEO, Enterprise Ireland said: “Over the next 20 years, the aviation industry will need to supply more than one million new aviation personnel. The total civil aerospace expenditure is estimated to be worth $5.6 trillion by 2032 and the world’s airlines will need 38,000 new planes to cater for this demand - as well as the crews to operate them. Enterprise Ireland has over 100 clients involved in the Talent Management Solutions sector and we have worked closely with CAE Parc Aviation since 1995. We are delighted to see the growth of the company which has maximised opportunities generated through Enterprise Ireland’s overseas office network and we wish them continued success for the future”.
