SilverJet UK IFM salary?
Anybody know what the Salary for the Inflight manager is? I know i should really wait until the interview to find out from the presentation but i cant be arsed to drive all the way to Luton for an interview when it may not be financially worth it..
Many thanks.. |
Money:
Line Trainer: GBP 19000 IFM: GBP 17000 Service Co: GBP 14000 CC: GBP 10500 |
IFM Salary
Plus Ģ2.35 per hour from sign on to sign off and the Service Excellence Reward Scheme (bonus for good pax feedback)
|
I have a question concerning the salary. Itīs 10,500 per annum plus 2.35 per flight hour, ok. How much is it per month? I am Spanish and cabin crew salaries donīt work that way in here, I donīt understand it sorry:rolleyes:
|
firstly it would depend on how many hours you did in a month to work out your flight pay.then you would also need to figure out tax.
so £10,500 per year = £875 per month say you did 6 trips a month,each trip being 50 hours 6 x 50 = 300 hours 300 hours at £2.35 per hour = £705 so... salary of £875 + flight pay of £705 = £1580 per month BEFORE TAX tax deductions would then depend upon whether you are resident of the UK or spain,and the tax rate on the hourly flight pay. |
Thanks tiggerific I was just sitting here working out how I could explain that and you beat me to it and in a much clearer way than I had got going!!!!!
:) |
no worries :ok:
im looking at silverjet myself,i emailed them a few days after 3rd november when their last closing date was for applications and explained my predicament (i am BA Connect crew) but they wouldnt accept it :( but will keep my cv on file for the next round,apparently to be in early 2007. it sounds like a good outfit,would i be right in thinking so?i know it hasnt started ops yet,but is all so far so good? |

Its certainly looking good at the moment. The developments are all very positive. They are now linked with a cruise company doing flights to connect with transatlantic cruises, which is another good thing alongside buying out Flyjet and Skylease which hopefully shows they're fairly secure financially- it also secured the AOC and the worldwide route license so that helped speed things up a bit. The communications from them so far have been great and it's all looking good at the moment, of course you can never tell but I think it's looking very positive. Start training next Monday which I can't wait for and the launch flight is on 25th January. Training course looks good and the service and products onboard sound like they're going to be great aswell, all that's on the website. I think it's definately worthwhile considering, I'm sure you'll hear more once we've all started training etc but it will be pretty exciting. I would imagine the recruitment will open agan reasonably soon as there is 2 more aircraft coming next year so it shouldn't be long! Good luck and I say go for it! PM me if you wanna know anymore! :) |
Thanks for that,do you know how many aircraft theyve got at the moment?had a look at the website start of this week,the whole operation looks fab.keep us updated with the training,id appreciate it muchly!
thanks :ok: |
I was having a look at the Silverjet website and really impressed with who the directors etc are and operations director and marketing etc, all with a wealth if experience of starting new things and having impacts on routes and growth for some very influential airlines that have come along way like Virgin. I know that some airlines have flopped straight away like Now airways but then if anyone went for the assessment there that was no big suprise. I think that with the gap that they are trying to bridge in aviation and location etc I have a feeling that it is going to be a huge success and really exciting for anyone that is joining them - well done everyone that has been offered positions
|
Tiggerific- they have one 767-200 from the take over of Flyjet at the moment and then there is 2 more joining the fleet next year from Thomsonfly, at least one if not both in the early part- around March time I think.
And Flying-Again, thanks for your comment it does sound great I'm really excited- as if you can't tell!! Who knows what's going to happen in the future but if you don't know you don't try!! :) Take care everybody! |
Silverjet interview
Hi everybody....
I am from Germany and got invited at the end of november to an interview...I am very happy I got invited although I am quite scared. I've never taken an interview in Great Britain and I would like to know if you guys have any 'formal' rules. I also speak American English and I am a little afraid of the British accent... Maybe you guys could give me some hints for the interview? Will there be any tests? I worked for other airlines before, and they did tests about basic knowledge of the country,language, math. Also I read about the 2 on 1 interview in this forum...How's that gonna work?Anything special to watch out? I'd be happy if sombody could help me a little. Thank you aleady....:) |

Your financial calculations appear to have overlooked one very important regulatory issue. Don't forget the max legal flying hours per annum is 900 for Cabin Crew & pilots. The round trip to New York in a 767 will be near enough to 15 hours; thus the maximum number of trips per year will be 900/15 = 60. Or 5 trips on average per month.
Removing leave (4 weeks per year is UK legal minimum, for details see http://www.opsi.gov.uk/si/si2004/20040756.htm) your max would average 5.5 trips per working month). In any case 60 trips per annum will be your absolute legal maximum and may be difficuly to achieve. If the average trip duration is 50 hours (bet it is less) then the maximum flying allowances per year will be 60 x 50 x Ģ2.30 = Ģ6900 or only Ģ575 per month!! Thus the absolute maximum monthly salary before tax could be only: Ģ875 + Ģ575 = Ģ1450 |
sorry Preppy,it was only a brief calculation to try & explain to Haminha how the duty pay would work,with the average number of trips per month taken from a previous post in this thread.

One week to go!!!!
Hi every one exactly one week to go till training starts how exciting!!!!!
I was just reading a few posts about pay etc at the interview they said to me that we will take home another Ģ10,000 a year on top of our basic??? i suppose we will have to wait and see......... Well good luck to all of you who have got interviews i heard they recieved 100's of applicarions this time round so you have all done great already!!! Well hope to meet some of you next week Happy Flying |
Interview At Last
At last I have secured myself interview for the 1st of December!!! Yipee
I have had a look at the web site and it looks fantastic!! Also I have read all the post which have been placed on this thread however I do have one question? So if anyone out there can answer it for me I would be much appreciated. Basically, I applied for a position as IFM as I have much experience in this area, however the email I received from Kate did not state which position I will be interviewed for. Do I need to email her and ask her which position I am being interviewed for or will they already know this? Sorry if this a silly question but if I need to get incontact with Kate before the interview date then more notice I give the better. Best of luck to you all!:D |
Annual leave
Preppy I don't know where you're getting your facts from re annual leave. Why do you think it's 35 days? The minimum is 4 weeks ( 20 days ) plus 8 bank holiday days which makes a total of 28 days.
|
Oneroam,
I can't say forsure how it will work now but the way they did it last time round was regardless of which position you applied for everyone were interviewed together and when you do your 2 2 1 interview you tell the interviewers which position you would like to be taken into concideration for. Then they decide whether you are suitable or not. Hope this helps. |
Hi there how did the training go today anyone?
Have an interview on weds & would be really interested how it went! Thanks |

Hi, I was wondering if you could ellaborate a little more on the selection process. I have an interview on Friday with Silverjet and I have no experience of Cabin Crew so I'm unsure of what the interview will be like; will there be a maths and english test? Will they measure candidates? I have many friends who are Cabin Crew for Virgin and I have heard that the selection process is very intense, does anybody know if it is similar to Virgin?
Many thanks :) I'd be so grateful if you could help me

I'm starting training as of Nov 27th, to answer a couple of your queries... Selection day: Pretty much run of the mill morning, a presentation on the company, what the uniform will be like etc etc... (all black, contrsting black & silver striped shirts/blouses) and tailored suits was what we originally told, no ties/scarves etc as we're are aiming for the relaxed business man approach... Followed by a group session... prioritising things in order of importance etc etc... Then sent for a break while they make their decision... If your successful then you have a 2 to 1 interview, which they tailor around you and what job specs you are looking for... I thankfully have been employed as a service coordinator due to previous experience so I'm well chuffed... Salary ranges from 10.5k main crew up to 19k line trainer, with approx 10-12k flight pay per annum, (trps are around 50 hrs a time, 2.30 p/h flight pay n about 7-8 returns a month) Reward scheme based on service excellence, and i think its approx 5% contributory pension by the company. Don't quote me verbatim on any of these... just a little heads up! Hope you find it useful :ok: |
Thanks Airside- it sounds very promising :)
|
anyone had any news yet?:)

Had my interview on Monday and they said it'd be the end of next week before I heard anything. Others told they'd hear before Christmas so don't know what's going to turn up. Fingers crossed anyway. Good luck. |
Silverjet!!!!!
Hey guys if any of you had recent interview with Silverjet did you get any news from them because I am still waiting I had my interview last week.
Ash |
Got email today stating that I was unsuccessful.
I kind of knew it after the interview as mucked up on a couple of questions and also thought that the guy was a bit up himself too. Seen him at the Air New Zealand interview earlier this year so he kind of put me off straight away!!!:sad: Well least still have a job!!! Lets us know how the rest of you got on who attending the recent interviews!! Best of luck!!:) |
Got the No thank you email today as well.
Good luck to all of you who did get it-sure you'll have endless nights of fun in New Jersey!!!:rolleyes: |
Hi!
Silverjet contacted me for the next selection on december 19th I'm already a FA (for 1 year) and I'm not a native englishspeaker. Can anybody give me some info? About everything! Interview, contract, duty, pay etc.... Please help me! In this airline are there many people coming from outside England or not? |
Check out airliners.net
The first pictures of G-SJET are now posted! Last day of week 2 of training tomorrow and all's going well! Good luck for all of you are having the interview soon! :)

got to agree with oneroam thought the initial presentation was great liked Martyn Bridger thought hes was very sarcastic but honest with it. 1-2-1 interview awful thought that guy was right up his you know what with no real idea of the airline industry let Martyn Bridger know in an e-mail but know reply yet. Think that Silverjet is a great concept with good management shame about the interview but glad I was not the only one who thought 1-2-1 rubbish.
|
Unfortunately the recruitment team for the initial interviews are outsourced to a freelance agency, they guy that interviwed you I believe is ex air new zealand. I don't believe e-mailing Martyn was a great idea... he does appreciate feedback, but negative comments on an interview??? I wish you all the best, if you truly want the role, maybe see you on-line in the new year...

Recent round of interviews..
Is anyone still waiting to hear about recent interviews? I went for an inflight managers position on the 21st November and are still waiting to hear an outcome. My friend who also attended the day has been sent a 'no thanks' e-mail. From what I have been told no news is good news, anyone else in the same boat???
