Crew Culture Manager – Airports

Hello. We’re Virgin Australia. We’re the airline that’s always done things a little different. Our way. The Virgin way. We’re on a mission to make flying better than ‘nice’. And to do that, it takes a team of talented people who are passionate about customer experience, doing the right thing always, with a focus on safety – in the air, on the ground and in our workplaces. A team who values real diversity and inclusion, in a big brand with big ambitions.

We have an exciting opportunity to join our  Airport Experience team based at Brisbane Airport as a Crew Culture Manager and be the captain (okay, manager) of workplace culture for our awesome airport teams.

Leading our recent award-winning Guest & Ramp Services teams – recognised as Best Airline Staff Service in Australia / Pacific – you’ll be based right at the airport, where the action happens and where you’ll bring our people strategy to life with energy, empathy and your individual Virgin Flair.

With up to 6 direct reports and up to 600 indirect wonderful airport-based team members under your wing, you’ll set the tone, lift the vibe, and keep our culture soaring. You’ll get the opportunity to shape how it feels to work at the airport, support teams who make travel magic happen every day, and walk out knowing you made a real difference.
