Behind all the commercial flights you see in the air, you’ll find the people on the ground who make sure flights, crews and passengers get where they need to be. At Republic Airways, those airline jobs are found in our Systems Operations Control (SOC). The SOC is at the heart of airline operations, and the aviation professionals who work there are in direct contact with our flight crews to ensure flights operate safely, every time. With over 900 daily flights to destinations in the U.S., Canada and Caribbean, there’s never a dull moment in the SOC!
The SOC operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. It’s a great scenario for those who thrive in a dynamic environment and enjoy working a non-typical 9-5 day. Two of the key positions in the SOC are Crew Scheduler and Dispatcher. Both roles are crucial to daily airline operations, and your opportunities are elevated in these high-demand careers at Republic.
Becoming a Crew Scheduler in our SOC is a great opportunity to work in the heart of the airline’s operation. There are many moving parts and pieces in this customer service position. Crew Schedulers navigate situations such as weather disruptions, Associates’ illness and maintenance delays. They come up with viable solutions to ensure that each flight goes out safely and on time with a legal and qualified crew.
Republic’s Crew Schedulers work at our state-of-the-art SOC in Indianapolis. You do not need a college degree or any previous experience to become a Crew Scheduler. If you’re 18 years of age, have a high school diploma and are dependable, decisive and able to thrive in a fast-paced and high-pressure work environment, you’d make a great Crew Scheduler!
