Our Story

Decades of collective experience in the aviation recruitment industry

In the Beginning...

Since its inception in 2006, AeroProfessional’s unwavering focus on aviation recruitment has been the cornerstone of its success, delivering exceptional outcomes for clients and candidates worldwide. Fuelled by a shared passion for aviation and a clear understanding of the recruitment challenges faced by aircraft operators, qualified pilots Nick Trollope and Julian Parker set out to build better solutions for the industry. This vision led to the founding of AeroProfessional.

The journey took an exciting turn in 2012 with the arrival of Managing Director, Sam Sprules, propelling the business into a new era of growth. Under his leadership, AeroProfessional has continued to expand its capabilities and strengthen its position within the global aviation market.

Today, AeroProfessional is recognised as a trusted aviation recruitment specialist, empowering clients with strategic and comprehensive HR and resourcing solutions. Our team combines deep industry knowledge with a commitment to service excellence, supporting organisations worldwide in attracting, managing and retaining the aviation talent they need.
