Job overview and responsibilities
The associate analyst supports the Central Business Office with the primary area of focus being the domestic line station. Responsible for supporting field leaders on station performance related to efficiency, as well as fulfilling short- and long-term scheduling needs. The analyst will analyze FTE authorizations, station specific challenges, future flight schedules and staffing levels to identify operational needs and risks in each work area. Collaborate with station leaders to determine accurate staffing minimums that comply with company standards while also incorporating station-specific needs. Ensure stations are meeting budget and efficiency goals by monitoring and communicating short term overtime needs and AUTO opportunities.
