📋 Description

• Manage 15–25 active sourcing requests simultaneously • Negotiate pricing, ferry positioning, fuel surcharges, overnight costs, and terms • Apply margin discipline to every trip • Escalate or walk away from deals that fall outside commercial or safety standards • Support PJAs with ranked, vetted options that are financially and operationally sound • Evaluate aircraft category suitability and reposition economics • Handle complex itineraries (multi-leg, international, peak demand, recovery sourcing) • Trip support is not administrative. It is proactive operational oversight • Review aircraft schedule for same-day and next-day departures • Run weather checks for all legs • Confirm aircraft and crew positioning • Verify passenger manifests and final itineraries in JetInsight • Set reminders to call FBOs ~1 hour before departure to confirm aircraft and crew on site • Notify PJAs when trips are fully confirmed and operationally clean • Rerun forecasts for next-day departures • Confirm final itineraries match across systems • Reconfirm operator readiness • Address any emerging weather or duty-limit concerns • Evaluate weather diversions • Coordinate AOG recovery options • Source backup lift when required • Work cross-functionally with Sales, Safety, and Ops to resolve issues • Occasionally assist with catering coordination, ground transportation, client-specific service requests

🎯 Requirements

• 3-5 years in charter brokerage, aviation sales, dispatch, trip coordination, or high-pressure inside sales where you've negotiated with vendors and managed tight deadlines • Proven track record negotiating with charter operators-you've pushed for better rates, walked away from bad deals, and built relationships that last • Hands-on experience with Avinode and trip management platforms like Jet Insight, FOS, or similar (required) • Working knowledge of CRM systems (HubSpot preferred) and comfort learning new tech quickly • You understand margin dynamics and trip economics, you can smell a bad deal from three emails away • You know when to push for another $2K off and when the juice isn't worth the squeeze • You're comfortable making high-stakes decisions quickly, even when you don't have perfect information • You understand how crew duty limits, weather, repositioning, fuel stops, and international considerations affect trip feasibility and cost • You can assess whether an operator's quote makes operational sense or if they're gaming the numbers • You know the difference between a Challenger 300 and a Citation X, and why it matters for a 4-passenger LAX-Aspen trip • You thrive in organized chaos - juggling 15+ active requests, rapid pivots, and constant operator communication energizes you rather than drains you

🏖️ Benefits

• Base Salary: $65,000-$70,000 (based on experience) • Health Benefits: Medical, dental, vision • Retirement: 401(k) with 5% company match • PTO: Unlimited PTO + 10 paid holidays • Professional Development: Annual budget for aviation conferences, training, and certifications • Perks: Discounted Flight Club membership for personal travel, quarterly team events, casual dress code
