Manchester Handling
 
Does anybody work for or know what Manchester handling is like as a company? Sent my application form off today but their website on 'about us' is under construction, doh!

hang on a second, is manchester handling now owned by flight support? or am i talking crap again? :confused:

supersnake 7th March 2007 19:07

hi there
 
it is indeed owned by flight support:ok:

J-Man 8th March 2007 10:01

Judging by the other posts on here regarding flight support, have i let myself in for something bad supersnake?

manxramptramp 8th March 2007 11:01

Don't believe the negative remarks about FS, busy times are ahead and MH are a good bunch.

Manchester handling, as far as im aware, have a very good rep. They have been taken over by Flight Support, but it doesn't seemed to have changed them much if at all.

As you can see from this thread, this is who they handle ......

The company has been in Manchester for about 3 years or so and with FS now behind them should be a good company to join. Extra cash always helps :) and other UK bases :ok:

Flight Support/ Manchester Handling
 
Flight Support/ Manchester Handling

They are advertising in the Manchester Evening News for:
  • Passenger Handling Supervisors
  • Passenger Handling Lead Agents
  • Passenger Service Agents
  • Dispatchers
  • Operations Supervisors
The question is does anyone know if they pay more than the other handling agents like Menzies or Serviceair, does anyone know? :hmm:


:ok:

mansp 8th March 2007 20:45

Have Man Handling got FlyBe?

J-Man 8th March 2007 22:25

Anyone know where I can apply for these jobs? I didn't manage to grab a copy of the MEN and can't find anything on there website.

Anyone know of any similiar jobs going at any Northern airports (Manchester, Liverpool,East Midlands, Leeds Bradford, etc)?

Thanks.

J-Man 9th March 2007 15:24

aviationjobsearch was my method of finding out, LBA are wanting pax agents for Aviance among other things if you check their website as well

manxramptramp 9th March 2007 18:10

Try Flight Support's website. I'm sure they have contact numbers on there.

manspot 9th March 2007 19:10

According to the advert in the MEN yesterday it states to send your CV to [email protected]
Seems they are after staff with current experience as the contract starts later this month. Good luck guys and girls.

swayne01 10th March 2007 09:36

Thanks for the links.

sputnik92 10th March 2007 11:29

smudgethecat talks crap
 
MH pay more than aviance/swissport/servisair
And the same staff have been there for some time
so I don't know where you are getting your info from
but you are incorrect!!

sputnik92 10th March 2007 11:31

jobs at MH
 
MH are now recruiting for all posts
send your c.v. to [email protected]

swayne01 10th March 2007 16:56


They are exactly the same as every other handling agent, they pay peanuts, have awfull terms and conditions, and therfore the same end result occurs surprise, surprise , massive staff turnover, low morale ,staff shortages and ultimatley dire customer service.
It's hard enough to get into the aviation industry when you have just left school after A-Levels (Sept 06). I personally have applied to loads of companies, and not heard back from any of them.

Seems that no-one wants to hire an enthusiastic 19 year old.
