Talent Management

At Caelus Solutions, we know what it takes to succeed in demanding aviation environments—because we've been there ourselves. Our recruitment and talent management process is led by qualified helicopter pilots and licensed engineers who bring real operational experience to every placement.

This insider knowledge allows us to go beyond surface-level CVs. We understand the critical difference between qualifications on paper and real-world readiness. That’s why our team plays an active role in sourcing, vetting, and selecting candidates who are not only certified but truly mission-ready.

Our rigorous vetting process includes:

  • Validation of licenses, certifications, and type ratings (EASA, UKCAA, FAA, etc.).

  • In-depth review of operational experience, flight hours, mission exposure, and technical expertise.

  • Peer-level screening, where our in-house aviation professionals assess candidates for capability, decision-making under pressure, and team fit.

  • Reference checks and background verification, ensuring reliability, integrity, and professionalism.

Whether you’re looking for a pilot with offshore or HEMS experience, an engineer rated on specific aircraft, or a highly skilled avionic technician, we provide trusted, qualified talent—ready to perform in complex and high-stakes environments.

With Caelus Solutions, you're not just hiring through another company—you’re working with aviation professionals who speak your language, understand your standards, and deliver results.
