Position Summary

The Executive Recruiting Leader will lead executive recruiting for StandardAero's most senior and business-critical leadership positions while building and establishing a dedicated executive recruiting function for the enterprise.

Partnering directly with the CEO, Executive Leadership Team (ELT), Senior Leadership Team (SLT), and Human Resources leadership, this individual will personally execute high-impact executive searches while developing the strategy, processes, tools, and talent pipelines needed to create a sustainable internal executive search capability.

This highly visible role requires a hands-on executive search professional with the business acumen, executive presence, and entrepreneurial mindset to serve as a trusted advisor to senior leadership while building a best-in-class executive recruiting function.

What You'll Do

  • Lead full-cycle executive searches for ELT, SLT, and other critical senior leadership positions across all business sectors and corporate functions.
  • Partner with the CEO, CHRO, and senior leaders to understand business priorities, define leadership requirements, and develop effective search strategies.
  • Build and establish StandardAero's executive recruiting function, including its operating model, processes, tools, assessment practices, and reporting.
  • Develop and execute proactive sourcing strategies through talent mapping, competitive intelligence, networking, and direct engagement with executive talent.
  • Build long-term external leadership pipelines to support anticipated hiring needs and succession planning.
  • Serve as a trusted talent advisor, providing senior leaders with market intelligence, candidate assessments, and strategic recommendations.
  • Lead executive candidate evaluation, selection, and offer negotiations in partnership with senior stakeholders.
  • Establish consistent executive recruiting standards that deliver an exceptional candidate and stakeholder experience.
  • Manage external executive search firm relationships while expanding internal search capabilities and reducing reliance on external partners.
  • Establish measures of executive recruiting effectiveness and continuously evolve the function to support business growth and changing leadership needs.

Basic Qualifications

  • 7+ years of executive search experience within the Aviation / Aerospace industry.
  • Bachelor's degree

Desired Characteristics

  • Experience building, leading, or transforming executive recruiting functions or capabilities, ideally within a complex global organization.
  • Exceptional executive presence and the ability to influence and advise CEOs, CHROs, and senior business leaders.
  • Strong business acumen and the ability to translate organizational strategy into executive talent requirements.
  • Advanced executive sourcing, talent mapping, competitive intelligence, and assessment capabilities.
  • Proven ability to engage and build relationships with highly sought-after passive executive talent.
  • Strategic and entrepreneurial mindset with the ability to balance hands-on recruiting with building scalable processes and capabilities.
  • Excellent communication, relationship management, judgment, and discretion.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
