Empowering women in the workplace
THE aviation industry is mainly a male dominated world. However in recent years there have been major changes and shifts in the global market, where more and more women are joining the aviation world. If you can do the job, it shouldn't matter if you are a man or a woman.
The Joyce Aviation (Fiji) Group in Nadi is no exception.
Owned and operated by Tim and Susan Joyce, the group includes Tandem Skydive Fiji, Heli-Tours Fiji, Sunflower Aviation and the Pacific Flying School. As the company expanded from humble beginnings with Tandem Skydive Fiji in 2004, the company also grew in terms of human resources and personnel.
Majority of the management role at the Joyce Aviation Group is held by females.
Senior management roles include the group’s chief financial officer, accounts manager, group human resources and admin, FBO and sales manager, groups marketing and business development manager and of course, the Pacific Flying School headed and managed by Katarina Betty Mora.
The commitment to diversify and include women in all facets of the business is something the group is passionate about.
Apart from senior management roles, there has been an increase in female students registration for the Pacific Flying School.
Our female students continue to push the boundaries and go above and beyond in pursuing their dreams to become a pilot.
Our Engineering Department also employs three aircraft maintenance engineers who continue to push boundaries in a somewhat male dominated field.
Joyce Aviation will continue to empower and equip our women to perform to the best of their abilities and providing them with the tools that they need to excel in their respective field.
