The challenge
Finding the right instructor is getting harder
Capacity peaks
Fleet growth, new hires and recurrent waves rarely line up with the instructors you have on the roster.
Scarce qualifications
A current SFI, TRI or examiner on the right type is hard to find, and takes months to qualify internally.
Months you do not have
Finding, checking and contracting an instructor yourself takes weeks of work by people who are already running a training operation.
What we provide
The most common types. All training roles.
Our standing pool runs to more than a hundred instructors and examiners: experienced captains with a major-airline background, on the A320 family, A330/A350, B737, B747, B777, B787 and E190. Whether you need one examiner for a peak week or a team of instructors for a type-rating campaign, we match from people we know and have screened.

We know airline training from the inside
Instructorrecruitment.com was founded by two serving airline captains who each ran an airline training organisation as Training Manager. We’ve sat on your side of the table, planning capacity, qualifying instructors and answering for the standard.
