Director - Tim B. Manley

Tim’s expertise in Safety Management Systems stems from his 30-year career in aviation as a Pilot, a Safety Manager and earlier on, as an Air Traffic Controller.

The Canadian Air Force provided the basis of his training and development as an aviation specialist. Later, Tim’s commercial aviation career afforded him the opportunity to expand his knowledge and experience in commuter airline operations and offshore oil and gas helicopter operations, both domestically within Canada, and internationally in different environments, countries and cultures. He was a Flight Standards Check Captain and Line Training Captain in addition to continuous roles in Safety Management.

Throughout his career Tim has always remained involved in the development of Safety and Quality initiatives wherever he has worked. He has been responsible for managing company safety and quality programs and performing the oversight function as an auditor. With the advent of Safety Management Systems worldwide, he has a passion for helping the aviation industry to develop, implement, and oversee their safety and quality programs and as a result he became a founding Director of QAS Aviation International Ltd.

Tim has achieved a Diploma in Safety Management for Airlines through IATA, and is a certified ISO 9001:2000 Safety and Quality Lead Auditor.
