This job has now closed.
Kia ora!
We are seeking applications for Regional Cabin Crew in our Q300 based in Nelson for starting in 2026.
Our Regional Flight Attendants are passionate about customers and regional New Zealand and you'll play an integral part in flying Kiwis around the country while getting to know all the best regional spots. You'll get our customers to their destinations safely and on time while demonstrating strong leadership, along with delivering an excellent customer service experience.
A little bit about our Regional based Flight Attendants
There are many advantages to becoming a regional Flight Attendant. Working locally means you're never too far from home. You will be ensuring safety in the cabin, providing in-flight service to customers and liaising with Pilots and Ground Staff to ensure a seamless and on-time experience.
The environment on our regional New-Zealand aircraft is friendly and informal, allowing you to chat with our guests and point out areas of interest during your flight and tailor your customer service to a wide range of passengers. You will be able to step up, take charge of matters in-flight and really own your role.
Q300 Fleet
In this sole charge role, your 'team' on shift will be the Pilots and Ground Staff - you'll be solely responsible for up to 50 passengers on board our Bombardier Q300 Aircraft.
Key requirements
- Entitled to live and work permanently in New Zealand at the time of applying (NZ Permanent Resident/Citizen or Australian Citizen)
- Full New Zealand Driver Licence with reliable transport
- Minimum 2 years customer service experience in a high pressured and customer centric environment is preferred. We are looking for someone with a natural passion for people, ability to cope under pressure, and be resilient in unforeseen circumstances such as medical emergencies
- We operate in a 24/7 industry, so you will need to commit to rostered shifts, weekends and public holidays and be available for regular overnights away from your home base
- Compliance with our Uniform Standards
Recruitment Process
- Step 1 - If you meet all the above minimum requirements, you will be asked to complete an online digital video interview
- Step 2 - Cognitive assessment
- Step 3 - You will be invited to attend an assessment centre/Interview
- Step 4 - Successful candidates will go through an extensive vetting process, which includes: 2x references, medical clearance, police clearance, swim test (50 metres under two minutes and treading water for one minute) and St John's Level 2 first aid course certification
- Step 5 - You will then be placed into our candidate talent pool. Our Talent Acquisition team will be in touch once we have an available paid Cabin Crew training course.
