Maximus Air Cargo (Merged)

[XpressOne]

Major expansion is in progress at Maximus Air Cargo with many positions both flying and non-flying being advertised on their website at
Maximus :: Careers (http://www.maximusaircargo.ae/en/careers/default.aspx)

Company ownership changed in December now 95% owned by Abu Dhabi Aviation a publicly quoted company on Abu Dhabi stock exchange

[MarkerInbound]

Part of the job description is "Balancing safety, customer needs and economic variables." Sounds like a fun tightrope to walk.

[DMahon]

then it's right up my alley, an Atlas Air clone perhaps?

[abhi88]

Saw the ad in local newspaper here. Their requirements are pretty high for FO's, 3000TT of which 2000 Jet hours and 1000 in L382.:(

[K9nads]

I know times are hard but that is asking alot, must be paying well :hmm:

[ferhankaka]

any idea what they are going to be paying dispatchers out there?

[abhi88]

Not confirmed,but I've heard that their pay for people working in OPS dept is the best among all the cargo companies here.:bored:

[Top Loadie]

Anybody able to shed some light on routes and contracts? I heard they are/were signed up with a number of national carriers...

[747loadie]

Are they recruiting LM's and if so what qualifications are they looking for and what is the renumeration?

[Wings Of Fury]

I heard from a U.K based recruitment agency (I think) that there was a Sudan hub that suited there operation schedule, and pilots were spending up to 3 months there?

[UN-Coordinated]

I have seen them in Geneina (HSGN) and Nyala (HSNN) recently with L-382 A/C seem to have some kind of contract with Arab nations serving their brothers here in Sudan. Crew were mix of DXB nationals and ex SAFAIR Crew. As far as I know they route DXB - KRT (Night Stop) - DARFUR

[Jacobest]

747loadie, yes, they are looking for loadies, on the airbus as well as on the C-130

Wings of Fury- I think you must have heard wrong then. All crews do two weeks tour in Sudan (Khartoum)

[Wings Of Fury]

Yeah Jacobest, that sounds more like it,

UN-Coordinated, is it just the L-382 you have seen in KRT? Has the A300-600 also been there? I would like to know what routes the Airbus does?

[superspotter]

Not very many at the moment, the A300 has been sat outside the maintenance hangar at ADD since the change of regisration from TF- to A6- for at least five weeks to my knowledge.

[HercDriver]

Spoke briefly with a recruiter today. He is suppose to be forwarding more info tomorrow. I meet the FO requirements. I am more interested in what the general thoughts are about this company? Are they in for the long haul? Or will they be gone in a few short years? I was quoted a very good salary plus housing and school allowances.

As to the above... are you saying the crews spend two weeks in the Sudan and then rotate back to Doha?

[XpressOne]

They are recruiting in all areas see www.maximus.aero (http://www.maximus.aero) - the base for crews is in Abu Dhabi - watch out for a major news announcement for Airbus Freighter contract starting in July for a scheduled service operator

[HercDriver]

So this company is up and coming and growing then?

[aeroground]

very much so

[Inspecthergadget]

They are recruiting in all areas
Don't see anything in Ops or Crewing so ALL areas is incorrect.

[aeroground]

send your CV

[hoover1]

so what is the pay like for f/o and capt. and t&c

[Paladini]

Will Maximus spring for the Airbus Type rating? Have lotsa B742 time, both seats.

[Kato747]

This is the outfit just finishing their "wet-lease" from Air Atlanta, right?

[airlove]

i worked for them a year . the worst company as i see ...

[HercDriver]

[utopik]

Hi,

I am interested to know what kind of roster one might expect working for Maximus.

How much leave per annunm?

Commuting possibilities?

Kind regards

[Kato747]

LME vacancy ad?

You must have caught me on a "blonde" day:} ..... what, pray tell, is an LME Vacancy ad?

[yogi-be]

Could anybody enlighten me on the pay and benifits? roster? etc etc?

Thx,:ok:

[airlove]

[Harlem]

Could anybody explain how are the conditions in Maximus? Days off, salary for captains, live in Abu Dhabi... every info will be apreciated.

[A10Warthog]

Just received an email from Maximus Air cargo, that my application was not longer considered.
“Due to higher qualified personnel”. True, I just have king air hours…. Aww, back to scratch again…
:ugh:

[Storminnorm]

Kato 747, LME? Licensed Maintenance Engineer?
Just a guess.

[NGrat]

Hi Guys,

Just got a email about phone screening. Can anybody thats been trough such tell me a little bit what to expect??

Brgds, Mr. rat

[Spaced Out]

Kato747, are you referring to the Southern Air crowd or Air Atlanta?

As far as I'm aware, Southern Air operated for ET and also did the Sharjah run.

Maximus never leased in according to the Commercial Department. Got their latest a/c availability and it seems they are fairly booked for the new year except for the AN124, March 2010 is first availability.

[XpressOne]

They have two Airbuses operating for Etihad on their cargo routes and a third Airbus is enroute early next year hence the expansion and requirements for more crews to be based in Abu Dhabi - they have had a third airbus on lease from Air Atlanta but it seems to spend more time AOG then flying so they have terminated the contract from end of this month - another lost contract for Air Atlanta.....

[jeturme]

Does any body has any info on them? would be greatly appreciated:ok:

[XpressOne]

You can find full details at www.maximus.aero (http://www.maximus.aero) including link to Careers/Job page - they are adding third Airbus A300-600RF to fleet soon and looking to recruit suitable qualifed/type rated pilots. They offer conversions to A310 and B4 qualified pilots I believe.

[jeturme]

Thanks! Xpress one :ok:

[Eng AW139]

Are they looking for flight Engineers?

[Dodo56]

Sounds like they have filled their posts, nothing on the website.

Maximus Air Cargo - Careers (http://www.maximus.aero/careers.php)

[XpressOne]

If you have Hercules qualification then yes - if not the 600RF is F/E free.... sorry

[bumba]

.... I have a friend Instructor Pilot on the C130 and they never call him! Are they still hiring pilots or feel the economic downturn also in petroleum land?

[TheHumberBridge]

Anyone here currently flying for Maximus and happy to answer a few PMs for me? It would be much appreciated.
