His journey reflects a company
culture that empowers
employees to expand their skills
and shape their own careers.
Peter Wheatley, vice-president and general manager, at StandardAero.
StandardAero supports ongoing
education — including
Wheatley’s MBA from the
University of Manitoba — and
encourages employees to take
initiative. “If you raise your hand
and want to fix something, the
team here empowers you to help
fix it,” he says. “We thrive by being
customer-oriented and quick to
adapt.”
From welcoming families into
the workplace to providing clear
pathways for advancement — as
well as partnering with local
schools to open doors for future
aerospace professionals —
StandardAero offers more than
a job, says Wheatley. “It offers a
place to grow, belong and build a
career for life.”
