Job Will Pay Over $100,000 Per Year
The city of Santa Monica has posted a job announcement for an FBO manager to take over fuel sales and other associated functions at the airport.
The city is working to evict the two private FBOs located on the airport as part of its overall plan to close the airport as soon as it may legally do so. The city government hopes that can be in about two years.
The city is seeking a candidate with the following qualifications:
Knowledge of:
- Principles and practices of fiscally responsible planning, management and control.
- Local, state and federal laws, regulations and policies applicable to the structure, functions, programs and practices affecting FBO operations, services and activities.
- Aviation property, facilities and equipment.
- Budget development and management.
- Effective supervisory techniques and practices.
- Effective customer service techniques.
Ability to:
- Select, supervise, train and evaluate staff.
- Make decisions, maintain composure, and work effectively under stressful conditions and emergency situations.
- Interpret an extensive variety of technical instructions in mathematical or diagram form and deal with several abstract and concrete variables.
- Develop, implement and evaluate policies and procedures
- Analyze problems, identify consequences and alternatives, and develop sound solutions.
- Prepare and administer complex budgetary and financial reports.
- Prioritize and meet multiple, frequently changing deadlines
- Interpret, apply and communicate policies, laws and regulations.
- Communicate effectively both orally and in writing.
- Prepare and deliver effective oral and written presentations.
- Respond to public inquiries and complaints in a tactful and courteous manner.
- Establish and maintaining effective working relationships with staff, local, state and federal officials, customers and general public.
- Provide effective customer service.
The posting states that the FBO manager "is a three-year term-limited position" with a salary range of $108,996.00 - $134,568.00 annually.
Still, if you apply for and get the job, you might think twice before moving your family and taking out a 30-year mortgage on a home.
