School Careers Fair Event 2026

It is always a pleasure to attend Primary School Career Fairs in our local community. Representing our industry sector and hopefully inspiring the next generation of engineers, technicians, office staff, etc. 🛠💻

Receiving the following feedback this morning on email from the Assistant Principal makes it all worthwhile;

“They showed great curiosity and enthusiasm as they explored the different job roles and career pathways you introduced to them, engaging in purposeful conversations. The wide range of job opportunities shared on the day opened their eyes to a future full of exciting possibilities, and that was made possible because of you. Your willingness to share your knowledge, experiences, and insights made a meaningful impact and helped bring learning to life in a way that simply isn’t possible in the classroom alone”

We had a great time and we look forward to future opportunities to do similar volunteering work. 🤝

Red Nose Day

The team came together and got creative, designing their own noses and feasting on cakes to successfully raise over £100 in support of Comic Relief.

Proof that serious fundraising doesn’t always require serious faces!

Apprenticeship Selection Event

On the 13th March we had the pleasure of hosting our first Amalgamated Apprenticeship Selection Event of 2026. The objective behind this event was to get to know our applicants better, whilst also giving them an opportunity to learn more about us and the wider lift industry🛗

During our selection event, the applicants were presented with;
-A short interview with members of our team💬🗨️
-A Maths and English assessment✍📋
-The opportunity to meet our current and former apprentices🤝
-The time to ask questions about the apprenticeships and future career opportunities💡

As always, we see the importance of upskilling our workforce and also introducing fresh talent to the industry. This is something we commit ourselves to day to day🙌

If you are or anyone in your network is interested in apprenticeships/career opportunities, then please reach out.

 

Women In Lifts

We had a wonderful afternoon at the inaugural Women In Lifts networking event last Friday. It was such an inspiring event aimed at recognising and celebrating women in the industry.

The event offered the opportunity to make valuable connections with like minded professionals, and the insights shared were both engaging and meaningful.

We look forward to attending the next event!

5* Delivery

We’re starting the year exactly how we intend to continue with another high quality project handed over in the hospitality sector. Our Construction team delivered seven modernisations across luggage, guest and goods lifts – improving performance, reliability and guest experience.
