This is an unparalleled opportunity for someone eager to learn the foundational aspects of airport ground operations, ensuring the safe, punctual, and efficient movement of aircraft, baggage, and cargo under the cover of night.

As a Junior Ramp Agent, you will be an integral part of our dedicated and highly coordinated ground crew, working in an exciting, fast-paced outdoor environment at Regina International Airport. Your primary responsibilities will include the meticulous loading and unloading of luggage, mail, and cargo, precisely marshalling aircraft to and from gates, safely operating a variety of ground support equipment (GSE), and performing routine safety checks on equipment and operational areas.
