Job description

Join Stannah and help keep critical escalator infrastructure moving across rail stations, airport links and major transport hubs throughout Greater London.

As an Escalator Engineer, you'll be responsible for maintaining, servicing and repairing escalators and moving walkways across some of the UK's most heavily used transport environments.

This is a varied, hands‑on role where no two nights are the same. You'll use your mechanical and electrical fault‑finding expertise to keep critical passenger equipment operating safely and reliably.

You'll work across a range of equipment including:

• KONE TM, RTV and RTK units
• Schindler 9300 escalators
• Anlev systems
• Otis 506 NCE equipment

Unlike many engineering roles, your work will be focused within Greater London, meaning you'll enjoy exposure to major infrastructure projects without extensive regional travel.

If you are an experienced escalator engineer living within the M25 looking for a structured shift pattern, exposure to high‑profile London projects, and a role with no call‑out rota, this is an excellent next step in your career.
