B2 Licensed Aircraft Technicians in High Demand The aviation industry in the UK is experiencing a surge in demand for skilled B2 Licensed engineers. With over 20 years in the recruitment industry, I've seen trends come and go, but this current need is unprecedented. As a Business Development Executive at Aeropeople, I can attest to the growing opportunities for those with the right expertise. The rise in demand is driven by several factors. The increasing complexity of modern aircraft, coupled with advancements in technology, means that airlines and maintenance organisations need highly trained professionals to ensure safety and efficiency. This is particularly true in the UK, where the aviation sector is a critical component of the economy. According to a recent report by the UK Civil Aviation Authority, there has been a 15% increase in job postings for B2 engineers and avionics technicians over the past year. If you're a B2 licensed engineer or an avionics technician , now is the perfect time to explore new opportunities. At Aeropeople, we're dedicated to helping candidates find the right positions and supporting businesses in attracting top talent.

Is this opportunity available for Indian 🇮🇳
Well sayd.... Please note that B2 is an license shamefully underrated,the difference from B1 is mostly refused to be payed extra or by a small amount like +2eur Skillfull or not...B2 is a complete different category with separate type ratings and must be valued as superior category used for extensive troubleshooting,multiple measurements tools usage and critical equipment maintenance apart of crimping,stripping,spliceing,routing done on large variety of EWIS. Just saying...
Being underpaid for years will lead to this. Technicians jumped ship onto trains with higher pay. The train workers can't jump ship to aircraft though leaving a huge imbalance. Couple that in with IR35 and no pushback from industry leaders and this is where it's at.
These professionals are not only underpaid but also professionally discriminated against compared to the B1s.
I spent 30 or so years in the industry since the age of sixteen, unfortunately it has always had a lack of investment in the staff over a great many years and so a lot of damn good engineers have had to migrate on to other industries. I can’t help but feel the airlines and manufacturers only have themselves to blame. The staff are your business! Professionals in a specialised field such as this deserve better!
Thanks for sharing, have uk based companies adopted touring positions yet?

2moOnly recently have the rates paid by agencies started to rise. for too long they were stagnated, but the agency staff no doubt still got a rise every year. 1 rate rise in 8 years as a contractor. You've been underpaying people for years & they left the industry. Along with a reduced number apprenticeships & a dwindling numbers as a source in the armed forces that is the reason why there is a shortage of engineers. The bills we had for living went up, our rates didn't. It is nice to see the ball is in our court for a while & we can catch up on what we were earning.
