Compliance. Safety. Expertise. On demand.Compliance. Safety. Expertise. Auf Abruf.

We don't just advise. We act as your compliance and safety office, as much as you need and no more.Wir beraten nicht nur. Wir sind Ihr Compliance- und Safety-Office, so viel wie nötig und nicht mehr.

Having worked with more than 25 civil aviation authorities, we combine global regulatory experience with Swiss precision.Aus der Zusammenarbeit mit über 25 Luftfahrtbehörden verbinden wir internationale Regulierungserfahrung mit Schweizer Präzision.

Instead of hiring a full-time postholder, you get a part-time mandate backed by a whole team: nominated postholders, lean manuals and independent audits. Compliance should enable growth, not limit it.Statt eine Vollzeitstelle zu besetzen, erhalten Sie ein Teilzeit-Mandat mit einem ganzen Team dahinter: nominierte Postholder, schlanke Handbücher und unabhängige Audits. Compliance soll Wachstum ermöglichen, nicht bremsen.

Our conceptUnser Konzept

One part-time mandate instead of a full-time positionEin Teilzeit-Mandat statt einer 100%-Stelle

A compliance or safety postholder is a full-time job when you hire for it. With SSA you save that 100% FTE and still get your nominated postholder, plus a team of aviation experts behind them.Ein Compliance- oder Safety-Postholder ist als Anstellung eine Vollzeitstelle. Mit SSA sparen Sie diese 100%-Stelle und erhalten trotzdem Ihren nominierten Postholder, mit einem Team von Aviation-Experten dahinter.
