(Various positions are available including check-in agents, baggage handlers, ramp agents, despatchers and supervisory roles to ensure safe and efficient ground handling of our passengers and aircraft) For an airline that supposedly loses money I wonder how many £10's of thousands this will cost to set up & wonder where they staff will come from, a few will be made redundant from Aurigny & may transfer but I can't see a rush to fill these posts as Blue Islands aren't exactly known to be a good employer to work for.
They have been there and done that before. Not good for staff who might be hoping for a long term career.
