During my aviation mechanics and engineering studies, I contacted FL Technics with a request to do an internship. Even from this small insignificant step, I have fallen for the magic of aviation. On the first day of my internship it was mindboggling – where to start and how should I do it. But right at the start, professional colleagues have shared their experience and intelligence to get me through the day and learn necessary procedures and systems. This teamwork that I have felt since the day one is the thing that pushes me to improve and move forward.

I started my journey with Avia Solutions Group back in 2016 as an account manager, which later led me to become the Communications Manager for the Chinese market. I moved to Lithuania in 2013 and I wasn’t sure if I could find a job here, considering that I couldn’t speak Lithuanian. After working in the sales department for one of the daughter companies, Locatory, I realised that my mastery of the Chinese language is a big advantage. Two years after, I felt like I wanted to try something new and the company offered me a position in the communications department, that I gladly accepted. The best part about this job for me, is that there are always new things to learn and explore. Even though it’s not always easy to step out of my comfort zone and take on new challenges, the good results and the experience I’ve gained motivates me to keep on going. I believe that Avia Solutions Group is the best place to start your career, because there’s so much space to grow.

Ever since I studied Aviation Mechanics at university, this field became a big part of my life. After working in various companies in Lithuania as an aircraft technician, in 2015 I decided to join Avion Express as Airworthiness Review Staff. This is where my career really started to grow: after two years I was promoted to Fleet Manager position and eventually my hard work payed off and I was promoted to the Vice President Fleet position. I love that that there is no routine in my job – today you could be in Colombia fixing the contract details and after a couple of days you could be in Turkey facilitating new cooperation agreements.

My journey at Avia Solutions Group started in 2018 when I took an administration position. Little did I know that just a year and a half later I’d become the HR Manager at AviationCV.com. I believe that if you set your mind to something and try really hard – you can achieve anything. My biggest motivation was knowing that there’s plenty of opportunities to grow professionally, so I took initiative and it was not taken for granted. It didn’t even take me a full year to grow into a senior administrator role, and once I started expressing my desire to transfer to HR, I got an offer to transfer to my current position. I am happy I got to start my journey at this international company and I believe that it won’t end here.

“I don’t think I’ll ever get bored here”, I thought to myself while applying for a Financial Analyst position at FL Technics, and I was right. I wanted a job that would offer more than just one product or service to avoid monotony and the dynamic environment is one of the things that I like most about my job. I believe that taking initiative will get you far – it’s never taken for granted within the company and it has helped me to grow faster in my role. I’m also very grateful to my direct manager who always inspired me to do better and made me feel like I’m an important part of the team. My work motto is to do my best at everything I do, instead of just completing the tasks for the sake of it.

I grew up near one of the Group companies – Helisota and used to always watch the helicopters flying in and out of the factory. It seemed like a dream or a literally magic to me. After graduating school I immediately started growing as a salesman. After the first job that thought me core strengths of salesman, I got a job at Helisota. Over the 9 years spent at the company I have grown from the Sales Manager up to the Sales Director. In this amazing dynamic environment we have a one big advantage – you can never feel like you know everything. Every day you are learning something new at Avia Solutions Group, continuing to grow as a professional and as an individual as well. 

I am very proud to be the part of Avia Solutions Group – one of the largest global holdings in Europe. I have started my journey at the Group as a Sales Manager at Locatory.com, providing quality aircraft spare parts marketplace services. During almost 6 years of my career in the Group I had amazing possibilities to gather a lot of experience, met many interesting & talented colleagues, as well as grown up as an individual. After all, understanding company’s processes led me to position of Director of Administration Department. This is a great place to grow and reach your career goals.

Being a part of Avia Solutions Group – a unified multiservice aviation group, is a big pride for me. It’s now been almost 7 years when I am working at Locatory.com. I started my career here as an active sales manager and later moved on to helping colleagues to achieve better results and add well-known names to list of our clients. After all, understanding customers’ needs has led me to become the sales and support processes development manager. I think the Group is a great place to those not willing to stand still, to work hard and react to any changes thrown at him.

My journey at the Avia Solutions Group started back in my study days, when I started at Helisota in a Locksmith-Mender position. This was the ideal position to learn everything that i can about the rotorcraft and its systems. I craved for new challenges, thus was learning pretty fast. After that the company has made it possible for me to keep my studies and the job at the same time. After the graduation i have joined the administration with new challenges on my table every day. I have been drawn into the aviation by the potential of the industry, but fell in love with the enthusiasm and the passion for this magic that each and every employee lives and breathes. I am extremely grateful to my peers for seeing the potential in me, as well as the continuous encouragement to take on ever-bigger responsibilities.

Since my first day, everybody have been very helpful and encouraging. If you’re not sure which position is the best for you, the team of managers are always ready to talk to you and steer you into the right direction. I am the living example of that. In 3,5 years I’ve changed three different positions until I’ve found it – the right path. Being a Maintenance Support Manager feels great!

Over the 20+ years of career in the business, a lot of ideas have crossed my mind and some stayed for good. This is why it is important for me, as a constant growing executive to be able to bring the ideas to fruition at some point. Here at Avia Solutions Group and FL Technics, I have this freedom. But most importantly, I have the opportunity not only to bring ideas to life, but to correct and improve on them along the way. The work in aviation gives you a unique chance to meet the most interesting range of specialists that is helping you to build your background every day.
