Based on the most helpful WSO content, transitioning from corporate finance or FP&A in an airline to aircraft leasing is indeed a niche move but not unheard of. The skills in corporate finance, such as variance analysis, financial modeling, and reporting, are generally transferable across industries, including aircraft leasing. However, the key difference lies in understanding the specific business model and nuances of aircraft leasing.
Aircraft leasing involves unique aspects like sale-leaseback transactions, ABS (asset-backed securities), and managing lease agreements, which are distinct from the operational finance focus in airlines. To make the transition smoother, gaining familiarity with these industry-specific elements and building expertise in the leasing market would be beneficial.
If you're considering this move, networking within the aircraft leasing industry and highlighting your transferable skills while demonstrating a willingness to learn the specifics of leasing could significantly improve your chances.
