Dive into aviation
The aviation industry is very complex. If you already know a lot about it, you will have the
chance to dive even deeper. You will be an expert faster than you know if you are new to it. One
thing is for sure - you will be passionate about aviation and look at the sky a lot
differently.
Growth opportunities
As a growing company, we provide an environment where you will develop your skills and knowledge
further. You will have regular one-on-one meetings with your manager, who will support you in
reaching your professional goals.
Teamwork
We like to work together, openly share our ideas and speak up - it doesn't matter if you are
talking to your colleague or manager. We have a seat for you if you value flexibility,
independence and thinking outside the box.
Flexibility
We know that not everyone is a morning person, so we have flexible working hours. Our colleagues
working from the Zagreb and Belgrade offices also have a work from home option, as soon as they
are independent in their work.
International company
As we are operating internationally, you will interact with your colleagues and customers from
all around the world, gather new experiences, get to know new people, and improve your
English.
Workcation
Stay with us long enough, and you will be able to go for a workcation to a distant remote
location (this year, some of our employees went to Thailand for a week!)
4-day work week
If you would like to have more free time and longer weekends, instead of working full time 5 days
a week, you can choose 4-day work week.
Healthcare & Well-being
Choice between a cash bonus or private health insurance. Employees can choose between a financial
bonus or private health insurance. The cash bonus is paid in two installments during the
calendar year (June and December) and will be prorated according to the date of employment. If
the health insurance premium is less than the full amount, the remaining difference will be paid
together with the second installment.
Contribution to the 3rd pillar after four years of working with us
The longer you stay, the better the sick leave coverage you receive. For example, in your 3rd
year with the company, your sick leave will be fully covered (100%).

Frequently asked questions
A data intelligence provider is a company that collects, analyzes, and processes large volumes of data
to extract valuable insights, which businesses, organizations, or individuals can use to make informed,
strategic decisions. In industries like aviation, for example, these providers gather detailed data on
airlines, airports, fleet operations, and more, then analyze it to offer actionable insights that help
companies optimize their operations, enhance performance, and make better business choices. In essence,
a data intelligence provider acts as a guide, using data to deliver intelligence that drives
decision-making and strategic growth.
For example, subscribers to a data intelligence provider's database include airlines, airports, aircraft
lessors, manufacturers, consultants, analysts, investors, government agencies, travel industry
professionals, and technology providers. These organizations rely on the data to track fleet
information, analyze market trends, monitor competition, make strategic decisions, and improve
operations across various sectors of the aviation industry.
For most of the entry-level positions we have available, aviation knowledge or experience is not a
requirement. We welcome applications from individuals with or without aviation experience, as we provide
the necessary training and support for new team members. Whether you have a background in aviation or
are new to the industry, you are encouraged to apply and explore the opportunities with us.
