About CAVU

For airports, for partners, for people. We are CAVU.

At CAVU, our purpose is to find new and better ways to make airport travel seamless and enjoyable for everybody. From the smallest ideas to the biggest changes — every day here is about creating better travel experiences.

Whether it’s our revenue-accelerating single platform technology, Propel, or our world-class hospitality venues such as 1903 and Escape Lounges, our solutions make travel smoother for passengers and more profitable for our partners.

We know that to bring your best ideas, you need the space to think, the right support, and the freedom to be your authentic self.

Whether you’re working from our offices, from home, in a lounge, or out on the road, we provide the environment to create, innovate, and transform airport travel.

If you’re looking for a career where you can make a real impact, bring new ideas to life, and push boundaries — then CAVU is the place for you.

Together, we can reach new heights. Together, we are CAVU.

What’s the role?

As Supply Chain Manager, you’ll play a central role in building and embedding a world-class supply chain function that enables CAVU’s global growth strategy.

This is a true greenfield opportunity — a chance to help shape and define the supply chain strategy from the ground up. Working closely with the Global Supply Chain Director, you’ll drive operational excellence, implement scalable systems, and optimise supplier management as we scale across EMEA, APAC, and AMER.

Whether it’s food and beverage for our lounges, or SaaS to support our marketplace, we rely on the suppliers we choose to support our purpose, “to create better travel experiences for passengers everywhere.”

That means building a supply chain that’s smart, sustainable, and ready to move at speed. Balancing global partnerships with local know-how to deliver quality, consistency and innovation wherever we operate.

Our suppliers are an extension of our team, helping us bring thoughtful, seamless travel experiences to life – wherever passengers are headed.

This is a unique opportunity to make your mark in a high-impact role — where your ideas and leadership will directly influence CAVU’s future operating model.
