If it's like every other GA company in the country, then probabily because it's the most overworked and stressful, yet under recognised and appreciated position within the company. I know I sure as hell couldn't do the job.

I wonder what they are paying. I'd expect well over $100k for that position. If you translated it to another industry such as transport / trucks etc you'd be looking at that much.
Perhaps people believe it may be a lead-in to a flying career... Like Ice Pilots for example.

The role used to be a leg up for CPL's gaining their hours to get a foot in the door on the shrikes. They primarily manage aircraft hours, cycling them through for maintenance and sorting out **** ups. The role could have diversified though.
