The posting

Purpose of the Role

The Technical Editor accurately implements instructed changes into aviation operational manuals and related documentation, collating provided content into the required structure and applying the correct styles, formatting, and standards. The role supports timely, high-quality Technical Publishing delivery by producing manuals that meet client requirements, applicable service levels, and TrustFlight quality standards.

Scope & Decision-Making Authority

  • Works within defined task scope, implementing instructed changes from approved sources without making independent technical or content decisions
  • Manages own workload and task prioritisation to meet agreed deadlines and service levels
  • Escalates unclear instructions, missing information, content conflicts, and capacity constraints to the relevant Author.
  • Operates within established Technical Publishing processes, styles, templates, and JIRA workflows

Key Relationships

Internal

  • Authors and Lead Authors: receiving instructed work, raising queries, and confirming completion
  • Other Technical Editors: collaboration and mutual support across shared workloads
  • Quality and document control functions: ensuring completed manuals meet required standards

External

  • Client source materials and instructions, received and clarified through Authors and Lead Authors (the role is primarily internally facing)
  • Client documentation standards and manual templates, applied during production
  • Software tools supporting manual production (MadCap, Adobe Acrobat, JIRA, MEL Manager), used as required

Key Responsibilities

  • Implement instructed changes accurately and completely into manuals and related documentation, collating provided technical content into the required manual structure.
  • Apply required styles, formatting, templates, numbering, references, and document structure consistently across all work.
  • Use production and task-management systems effectively, including Microsoft Word, MadCap, Adobe Acrobat, JIRA, and MEL Manager, converting documents into required internal tools and formats where applicable.
  • Update task status in JIRA and progress assigned work through the appropriate workflow.
  • Check completed work thoroughly before submission or handover, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and completeness.
  • Flag unclear instructions, missing information, formatting issues, inconsistencies, or content conflicts to the relevant Author.
  • Estimate work effort and communicate progress, blockers, and capacity concerns in a timely manner.
  • Work collaboratively with the team and support colleagues where appropriate.

Key Metrics for Success

  • Instructed changes implemented accurately and completely, with minimal rework or returned work
  • Assigned tasks progressed and completed within agreed deadlines and service levels
  • JIRA task status maintained accurately and kept up to date throughout the workflow
  • Consistent application of required styles, formatting, and document standards across all manuals

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.
