Aircraft Engineer Testimonial​

"I have had a truly wonderful time working with Rishworth. They have been incredibly supportive and professional throughout my contract, and they have always been there to assist me with anything I require. At Air Peace, I have had the opportunity to work as an Aircraft Engineer and Aircraft Quality Control Inspector. The team is fantastic, and we all collaborate exceptionally well." E. Abebe, B1 Engineer (B777), Air Peace

Very professional and understanding, he does a wonderful job of balancing the client's needs with the candidate's thoughts. He is so thoughtful and considerate, going way beyond his call of duty to ensure that the entire process is smooth and seamless. A wonderful person, with a great heart, I am confident that he will continue to scale greater heights in the years to come. I recommend him whole-heartedly and would love the opportunity to work with him again." R. Dixit, Group Director - Fleet Technical Management and MCC, Cebu Pacific Air

"Andrew has been absolutely awesome in helping me with the next step in my career.

If you are looking for the next steps in your career growth I would highly recommend you get in touch with Andrew at Rishworth Aviation who will make it as easy as it can be. Thank you Andrew." V. Naik, Licensed Aircraft Maintenance Engineer, Australia 

"Andrew at Rishworth Aviation was truly a pleasure to work with from the moment he reached out to me. I was in the market for a new position in a gas turbine engine workshop and it was Andrew's lightning-fast responses and friendly demeanour which had my immediate attention.

He never left me wondering what was happening next." P. Rose, Aircraft Maintenance Engineer, Pacific Turbine
