About Me

Hello!

My name is Martina Vincenzi and I am the founder of Private Jet Coach.

I have about 20 years experience in aviation – both commercial and corporate – and worked as well as a recruiter for two of the Business Jet Operators leaders in Europe.

I started my flying career at the age of 20 at Air Dolomiti, a regional airline that belongs to the Lufthansa Group.

This first approach into the aviation taught me the basics of this job and allowed me to grow fast onto the purser position.

After 8 years of service I decided to take a new adventure and I moved to Dubai to start another exciting experience with Emirates Airline.

I spent 2 years in the United Arab of Emirates, working extensive long haul flights in a multicultural environment. 

My first flight was to Hyderabad – India- and the last flight was to Chicago- USA- !

I will never forget the feeling of excitement for both flights.

This experience taught me the cross-cultural communication, the importance of a good customer hospitality and the power of service consistency.

After  two years in the Gulf area, in 2015 I moved to Austria – Innsbruck – and flew for “Tyrolean Jet Services”.

TJS is a Private Jet Operator which was the first step of my career into the business aviation and that gave a high contribution in forming my professional skills.

Following that, Albinati Aviation became an additional milestone of my professional profile. 

In June 2016 I started my free-lancing career as Individual Corporate Flight Attendant and this experience made me confident of my potentials, taught me the real meaning of flexibility and I quickly became an expert of the business aviation industry and the art of hospitality.

I learned how important is to keep yourself up-to-date of what’s happening in the corporate world and how to create memorable flight experience even when you are not familiar with the aircraft you are flying on.

Since then, I have been collaborating with major European operators such as London Executive Aviation (now Luxaviation), Execujet (now part of Jet Aviation), Global Jet Concept, Albinati Aviation, Sirio S.p.A., Flexjet Europe and few private owners on board of Bombardier Global Express, Global 6000, Global 5500, Global 7500, Dassault Falcon 2000, Falcon 7X, Bombardier Challenger 350, Challenger 650, Gulfstream GIV, G450, G550, G650, Embraer Praetor, Embraer Legacy 550 and 600.

My worldwide experience brought me, among other admiring destinations, to Ouagadougou – Burkina Faso, to Irkutsk and Novosibirsk  -Siberia- for Orthodox Christmas, to Rovaniemi – Finland to deliver the letter to Santa Claus, to the South Pole in the continent of Antarctica to experience the “Antarctic Summer”.

In 2017 I had the great opportunity to work as Hiring Specialist for GlobeAir AG, a Private Jet Operator base in Linz – Austria.

Main -but not only- duty was the pilot hiring: I successfully created a complete recruitment process that allowed the company to grow up to 130 employees.

This experience taught me the importance of the words: to say something and say it in the proper way makes a huge difference.

During 2019-2020 another amazing opportunity arose: I started to work as a Hiring Consultant for Flexjet Europe in London, part of Flexjet USA and Directional Aviation (Cleveland, USA).

I supported the  HR team in pilot hiring for the new project of Flexjet in Europe by recruiting 160 qualified pilots to join the operations of fractional ownership on different type of aircraft and to fly worldwide the elite of the customers portfolio.

I also took care myself of the recruitment of the Flight Attendants and Flight Attendant Manager, and I gave a consistent contribution in building up the department.

When the CoVid 19 crisis arose, I run myself individual video training from remote to prepare the new VIP Flight Attendants of Flexjet for their first VIP experience, and since then I developed the idea of Private Jet Coach.

Because of my experience as business aviation recruiter, VIP freelancer, VIP flight attendant and instructor, I decided to combine them all under the same coaching and training provider, in order to create a unique program that could help other aviation lover to improve themselves.

I have then decided to take my career into the next level by establishing my own brand, focusing on the three aspects of my career that I values the most: training, coaching and… flying! 

Finding the universe in one detail.

During my childhood I came across many different phases, which involved different type of jobs.

Then, Since I was 10 years old, I had clear in my mind I wanted to work in Aviation.

I appreciate a lot my commercial aviation background because it’s the basic of the aviation industry.

I particularly appreciate my experience in the Gulf Area, because it opened my mind and I learned really a lot about other cultures.

During that time, I also developed some personal skills such as the handwriting analysis which allows me to learn more about the character of an individual from the way he or she writes.

This knowledge became very useful when I worked as recruiter, because this can be used as part of the emotional intelligence aspect that recruiters look for.

But it’s when I became an instructor during the lockdown in 2020 that I have finally found my calling.
