This isn’t a maintenance role. This is vertical transportation consultancy at the sharp end of the built environment.
We’re looking for a Senior Vertical Transportation Engineer to join a forward-thinking Engineering & Design Consultancy working on some of the UK’s most recognisable commercial, residential and mixed-use assets.
You’ll advise institutional landlords, global investors, managing agents, developers and occupiers, helping them make informed, low-risk, future-proof decisions about their lift and escalator portfolios.

About the role :-
* Delivering VT site surveys, audits and condition reports
* Producing lifecycle and capital planning reports for lift and escalator assets
* Acting as technical lead on VT replacement and modernisation projects
* Advising on refurbishments, major works and development schemes
* Managing consultants, contractors and OEMs
* Providing trusted VT advice to internal teams and clients
* Raising standards, reducing risk, and improving long-term asset performance
