More questionsabout life here?
At Air Inuit, opportunities are everywhere. Whether you're drawn to ground operations, maintenance, inflight roles, IT, or administrative positions, there’s a place for you to grow. Whether you want to build deep expertise or explore multiple areas, you’ll find an environment where learning, evolving, and moving forward are all part of the journey.
Filled with challenges, dynamic, and people‑focused. On the ramp, you’ll work outdoors with variable schedules and safety at the core of every operation. In administrative roles, collaboration, rigor, and strong opportunities for growth define the day‑to‑day. And everywhere across the organization, a strong team spirit truly makes the difference.
To make a real impact. Air Inuit delivers essential services to Nunavik 24/7 in one of the world’s most demanding environments, offering work that is stimulating, meaningful, and truly rewarding.
A range of competitive and generous benefits:
an employer‑matched RRSP with a 5% contribution, comprehensive medical and dental insurance, three weeks of vacation, telemedicine access, an employee assistance program, and flight privileges.
Some positions require occasional travel to our northern bases to support operations. Others follow a rotational schedule, where you work in the North for two or three weeks at a time, then return South for a rest period that varies depending on the role and the base. In these positions, the work takes place directly in the North, offering an immersive, cultural, and deeply human experience.
Yes! Air Inuit supports continuous training, professional development, and internal advancement opportunities.
Work hours and schedules vary depending on the role, but many operational positions follow rotating schedules of 2 or 3 weeks, based on the needs of the department. For ground operations and maintenance, this means variable shifts (day, evening/night, and weekends) to support 24/7 operations. In administrative roles, schedules are generally more stable, sometimes with options such as one remote‑work day per week or a 10/9 schedule.
Each day for the maintenance team begins with a review of priorities: planned tasks, crew reports, and the operational needs of the moment. Technicians then head to the aircrafts: King Airs and Twin Otters that remain in the North, Dash‑8s that are maintained both in the North and in Montréal, and Boeing 737 handled primarily in Montréal.
On the tarmac or in the hangar, the team adapts to every situation: an inspection after a northern rotation, a quick repair between flights, or a specialized check before the next departure. With rotational schedules in remote communities and both night and day shifts supporting the fleet, flexibility is part of the job. Each aircraft brings its own challenge, and every intervention matters.
Whether they support northern operations or work on the Montréal-based fleet, all share the same mission. And when the last tool is put away and the aircraft is declared ready, one thing is clear: their work keeps communities connected, one well‑maintained aircraft at a time.
