A Ramp Agent supports aircraft and ground operations by loading and unloading freight, moving cargo and equipment, preparing shipments, and following strict aviation and workplace-safety procedures. Candidates typically need physical fitness, the ability to lift and handle packages, reliable attendance, good teamwork, and clear communication. A valid driver's licence and experience in warehousing, freight, airport operations, or customer service may be advantageous. The role usually involves working outdoors, around aircraft, and across rotating shifts, including nights, weekends, and public holidays. Candidates are expected to work safely and efficiently under time pressure, follow security requirements, use handling equipment correctly, and maintain accurate freight records.
