Latest news is that the Maintenance Supervisor Position at Base/SIT will disappear around Nov/Dec. In its place will be Ops Managers above the DMM's.
So there will be an Ops Manager for every shift and below him will be the DMM.
So roughly 10 to 16 positions created all on 170K +, who will actually do nothing with running the business but be on hand to sort out issues non technical & not related to maintenance!!
So the inverted cone of management increases - there are now and will be more levels of management that QF Engineering has ever had before....why?
Because upper management dont trust the guys (DMM's + Supervisors) who actually operate on the coal face, that tell them how it is and what will and will not work...
I still cant see how they can justify having so many levels of management and a MOC that is ridiculously overstaffed, with a smaller fleet of aircraft being operated...but for some reason, Qantas Engineering needs more managers...
Also still 200 staff from the ranks to get the bullet!
