- Complete job cards, service reports and other relevant documentation using our app-based software.
- Maintain company vehicles and equipment to a high standard.
- Represent Leodis Stairlifts professionally at all times.

Ideally, you will have:
- An NVQ Level 2 in Stairlift Maintenance or an equivalent qualification.
- Previous experience within the stairlift industry.
- Strong electrical and mechanical engineering knowledge.
- Experience fault-finding and diagnosing electrical and mechanical issues.

- Excellent communication skills.
- The ability to work independently and use your own initiative.
- A positive “can-do” attitude and willingness to go the extra mile for customers.

We will also consider engineers from other electrical or mechanical backgrounds who can demonstrate strong technical ability, practical aptitude and a genuine desire to learn. Full industry training and development will be provided to the right candidate.
