At our Wales facility in Nantgarw, just north of Cardiff, we specialise in the maintenance, repair and overhaul of a range of commercial jet engines. We occupy 1.2 million square foot of workshop space, and have 2 state-of-the-art aircraft engine testing facilities, along with a significant repair capability.

The site has the capability to provide maintenance, repair and overhaul services for a range of engine types - including the world's most powerful commercial aircraft engine the GE90 115B and the world's most popular commercial engine the CFM56.

In 2017, we were selected as the Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul facility of choice for the GE9X; which will become the world's largest and most fuel-efficient jet engine when it launches into service. The site will benefit from a £5m investment from the Welsh Government to support the total £20m investment put forward by the business, to equip and upskill the facility to be ready to maintain the GE9X fleet when it enters service on the new Boeing 777X aircraft.

If you join us, you'll find yourself in a dynamic environment where our ongoing, substantial investment in research and development keeps us looking ahead. Developing people is embedded in our culture and integral to our growth. Here you'll work collaboratively and cross-functionally with the highest calibre talent, utilizing cutting-edge technology and processes.

If you're passionate about generating advances in aviation to solve some of the world's toughest problems and are looking for a career rich with challenges and unlimited opportunities for growth and advancement, then join GE Aviation Wales as we rise to the challenge of building a world that works.
