Hi, I’m Sumi

Turning five-star recruitment insight into your cabin crew success story.

A premium aviation recruitment specialist, entrepreneur, and the founder of The Global Crew. For over two decades, I have worked at the highest levels of five-star
airline talent selection, helping shape the next generation of world-class cabin crew.

My aviation journey began at SriLankan Airlines and was further refined through more than 20 years as a Cabin Crew Recruiter with Qatar Airways — one of the world’s leading five-star airlines. During this time, I worked across global and multicultural recruitment markets, consistently upholding uncompromising luxury brand standards.

I have led large-scale international recruitment campaigns across multiple continents, while also conducting precise final-stage selections — giving me the rare ability to
Identify both high-potential candidates and truly five-star, airline-ready talent.

Today, through The Global Crew, I transform this elite recruitment experience into structured, high-impact coaching — providing candidates with practical, real-world preparation for every stage of the airline selection journey.

Because success in aviation isn’t about guessing.
It’s about understanding exactly what recruiters are looking for.

I don’t coach based on trends or theory.
I coach based on experience gained from selecting the world’s finest cabin crew.

Hi, I’m Gilly
