Job Description:
### Be the Heartbeat of the A320 Delivery
Are you ready to be the driving force between our suppliers, our production teams, and our airline customers?
We are looking for a Lead Cabin FAL Interface (CFI) to join the Airbus Procurement Operations team in Toulouse. In this role, you aren’t just sitting behind a desk; you are on the ground in the Final Assembly Line (FAL), ensuring the A320—one of the world's most successful aircraft—is delivered on time and to the highest standard of quality.
If you thrive in a transfunctional environment where no two days are the same, and you want to see the visible impact of your work as an aircraft leaves the hangar, this role is for you.
### Your Mission
As a Lead CFI, you act as the vital link between the Cabin Supply Chain and the Final Assembly Line. You are responsible for managing all cabin supplier activities for your assigned aircraft, ensuring we hit critical milestones (from Cabin Fit-Check to Handover).

Manage critical parts: Monitor short-term missing parts, provide accurate "On Dock Dates" (ODD), and keep the FAL leadership informed.

3.
Continuous Improvement & Problem Solving:
-
Drive solutions: Identify repetitive issues in daily operations and initiate Practical Problem Solving (PPS) procedures.
-
Collaborate: Feedback operational realities to internal customers and support the liability process regarding non-conformities.
### Who You Are

-
Education: Degree in Aeronautics, Industrial Engineering, or a related field.
-
Experience: You have a background in Quality, Production, or Supply Chain. Experience in Project Management is a strong asset.
-
Personality: You are autonomous, customer-oriented, and a true team player who stays calm under pressure.
-
Technical Skills: Familiarity with SAP (PEA, PAC) is highly valued.
-
Languages: You have negotiation-level English and an advanced level of French.
Why Join Us?
-
Global Exposure: Work in a truly transnational environment, interacting daily with diverse teams, international suppliers, and major global airlines.
-
