Why Rolls-Royce?

We are looking for a Service Officer to join our Services Control Centre (SCC), reporting to a Duty Manager, SCC on a 12-month secondment basis.  The role will involve interfacing with existing operational and technical teams responsible for Aircraft on Ground (AOG) service restoration for our global customer network.
