Leading Edge Aviation and Titan Airways Announce Exclusive Recruitment Partnership for 2025

Leading Edge Aviation (LEAL) is proud to announce their exclusive recruitment partnership with Titan Airways for 2025. Through this collaboration, Titan Airways will recruit graduate pilots directly from Leading Edge Aviation, reinforcing the strong relationship between the two organisations. This initiative highlights Titan Airways’ commitment to sourcing top talent and provides an exceptional career opportunity for Leading Edge graduate pilots.

Captain David Cox, Director of Flight Operations at Titan Airways shared his enthusiasm for the partnership:

“We at Titan Airways are delighted to be continuing our partnership with Leading Edge into another year.  The cadets who have joined us in previous years have all excelled and now fly the line on either our A320 or A330 fleets.  Their maturity, resilience, professionalism and determination to achieve high standards are not only a tribute to them as individuals but are also a reflection of the high-quality training that they have received whilst at Leading Edge.”

The selected graduate pilots will benefit from a clearly defined career progression, beginning their journey as First Officers on the A320, with a planned transition to A330 operations from their third year of employment. This career pathway provides exposure to a diverse range of flying experiences with Titan Airways and its prestigious client base, enabling fast-paced career advancement.

Highlighting the impact this opportunity has on Leading Edge graduates, Alistair Smith, Head of Graduate Services at Leading Edge Aviation, stated:

“It’s always a pleasure to welcome the Titan Airways team back to Leading Edge. The opportunities that they offer our student pilots is unparalleled, and I know that each of the successful pilots will have an exciting career ahead of them.”

At Titan Airways, every day offers something unique and exciting. From executing VIP private charters and landing on Antarctic ice to hosting exclusive in-flight concerts and providing aircraft leasing solutions within an hour’s notice. With such diverse and prestigious flying experiences, it’s a career that promises constant challenge and reward.

Reflecting on the long-standing relationship between the two organisations and the benefits this partnership brings to aspiring pilots, Leading Edge Aviation CEO Andy McFarlane added:

“We are incredibly excited to strengthen our partnership with Titan Airways. This collaboration reflects our shared commitment to excellence in aviation training and career development. Together, we are providing aspiring pilots with unique opportunities to grow and thrive in this prestigious industry. We look forward to building on this relationship and achieving even greater successes in the years ahead.”
