Samaritan's Purse is seeking a Ministry Pilot to join our Mission Aviation Services team in Entebbe, Uganda. In East and Central Africa, roads are often poor or non-existent.

Pilots may be assigned to more than one aircraft type, and current base location(s)s should not be assumed to be final; flexibility may be required. Come use your aviation skills to advance the Gospel!
