I got an email today stating that they have had huge levels of interest in recruitment. The email did make is clear that they are actively recruiting still and positions are still available.
Those emails are like the out-of-office ones. Not paying attention anymore...

Sector Pay...

Can any current employees comment on the latest update (always looked at sceptically) to PPJN with regards to f/o sector pay.


Jet2.com pilot jobs news for airline pilots and aviation schools


The update suggests f/o sector pay being increased to meet that of captains. That would be more than doubling the current figures for f/o sector pay.


Anyone know if this update is indeed accurate and correct?

Many resignations in, many more in the pipeline. Even the Apprentices are looking around apparently. A substantial (at least 10%) payrise for both seats maybe the only way to temporarily stem the flow while some of the other issues are addressed. But a time when a certain members of senior management are apparently not talking to each other, don't expect much to improve. The very experienced Captains at Jet2 always said it was a company that desperately needed to grow up. How right they were!

To be honest, I enjoyed my time at Jet2 thanks to the people I had the pleasure of working with day to day. We had a really good gaggle of people at my base but when all's said and done, the company is an amateur circus with bottom of the market T's and C's. Go in with your eyes open people!

Nothing formally announced, so whoever put it on PPJN is purely speculating - or maybe it's been put there to entice more applications - who knows?

Plenty of rumours surrounding increase in pay and terms, but rumours are just rumours - most of us don't believe it until it actually appears in practice. The 10% pay rise one has been going around for months - plenty of time for some official communication to either confirm or deny from the powers to be but silence is the chosen method of communication.

The only thing certain, is that there are still lots of people actively looking for other jobs, whilst many people who have applied are still waiting for news of any kind - and I can't see that trend changing until the company grows up and realises how big it has become.

Day to day working is good fun, with a great bunch of guys and gals, the company just needs to grow up.

When I left Channel Express in 1999 that is exactly how I described the place, nice bunch of people to work with but the system needs to grow up.

It would seem little has changed !

Pay Rise

It appears that the Zenon pay has increased by approx 10%, giving rise to the speculation that full timers may also benefit. Somehow though.........

Something is going on; the share price is doing very well. Phillip will be back in the Sunday Times rich list again!

Code:
Someone buying Philip out?
Shouldn't think so!
I understand that he has 42,000,000 shares so dont think he will be after a Wonga loan any time soon!

Suspect it's all related to the interim trading reports showing record profits.

Dont get too excited ...
" However, increased losses are to be expected in the second half of the year as our expanding Leisure Travel business invests in additional aircraft, advertising and people in readiness for the summer 2016 season. "

Yes, it's the challenge of being able to grow the summer profit to offset the ever expanding winter loss that will be key. The big unknown thrown into the mix next year will be the large investment in brand new aircraft - a big change from their previous operating model. Will be interesting to see if they really can utilise these aircraft efficiently enough to cover their large lease costs and/or loan repayments.

And some people's inter-personal skills mean cargo flying is more their thing.
