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.
Who You’ll Work With:-
You’ll be advising clients across:

- Landmark mixed-use and residential towers
- Large-scale estate portfolios
- High-profile retail and destination assets
- Complex, multi-asset property portfolios owned by FTSE-listed and global investors
- You’ll work directly with Property Managers, Facilities teams, Surveyors, Project Managers and Building Consultants, influencing decisions at both asset and portfolio level.
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
What our Customer is Looking For:-
You’re not just technical — you’re commercial, confident, and credible.
Essential:
- 5+ years’ experience in the Lift & Escalator industry
- NVQ Level 3 (or equivalent) in Lift & Escalator Engineering
- Strong technical knowledge across passenger lifts, goods lifts & escalators
- Experience producing professional reports for clients
