Meet Christian Tanner, Senior Technical Advisor at AMROS-Global. This month we would like to introduce him as our employee highlight and share an insight about him and his role at AMROS.
Q: What did you do before working at AMROS?
Before AMROS, I was Head of Maintenance at Super Constellation for 1.5 years.
However, I got my start in aviation at Swiss Air in 1986 as a sheet metal worker and then later moved into material planning. From there I moved to maintenance planning and special cabin modifications, among other tasks. Additionally, I worked at SR Technics as a Project Manager for the HMV’s.
Q: What is your current position and what does it entail?
Since July 2019, I do the maintenance planning for customers and prepare some HMV’s as well as delegate work packages. In the future I hope to make a test for the ARC inspection Part-M in BAZL so that I can do these types of tasks as well.
Q: What do you like the most about your job?
I enjoy the flexible nature of the working hours and the fact that I know my colleagues really well because we worked together in the past, which makes a nice atmosphere.
Q: What is the most challenging part of your job?
For me, the change from SAP to AMOS has been very challenging because you need to know the system well in order to work efficiently. Today, there is a lot of on-the-job training involved.
Q: Do you have any advice for anyone who would like to work in your position?
Previous knowledge in the aviation industry would be ideal. For my position specifically, a Part-M test, Microsoft office proficient, and being flexible and able to learn quickly to be efficient.
Q: What are 3 words you would use to describe AMROS?
I would say young, straight-forward, and fast-growing.
And now for a little off-topic questions to conclude this interview ?
Q: If you could have any other job for one day, what would it be?
I would be like a bird because I love being up in the sky and as a bird, you have the possibility to have amazing views.
Q: What was your most rewarding moment at work?
I was once a part of a MD-11 VIP project which ran for more than 3 years. When it was completed, we flew we Hamburg and made the handover to a prince. It was an amazing experience.
Q: If you could have dinner with any person (dead or alive), who would it be?
I would choose to be with my girlfriend in Jungfraujoch on the top of Switzerland enjoying the beautiful views.
Q: Do you have a favorite song?
Well, at the moment, it is Shallow by Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper. I came to know it when I watched the film last year and I really liked it.
Q: Now for the last question: What do you like to do in your free time?
I like to be outdoors so any free time I have you can find me doing woodwork, sheet metal work, gardening, or hiking.
