Engineering Maintenance Technician Apprenticeship (Lift Engineering)

Our engineers work on a wide variety of lift equipment and technologies, meaning apprentices have the opportunity to develop both mechanical and electrical skills while gaining real experience in the field.

1. Shadowing Qualified Engineers / Technicians: Working alongside senior engineers to learn hands-on diagnostics, repairs, reactive callouts, PPM.

2. Technical Work: Handling mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, and electronic control systems.

3. Safety & Compliance: Following strict industry regulations, such as safe working procedures for lift pits and plant rooms, learning on near-hit and accident reporting.

For us, an apprenticeship is not simply about completing a qualification. We want to give people the skills, experience and support they need to build a long-term career within the lift industry and the wider Andwis Group.

We believe strongly in developing our own people. Apprentices are supported through their apprenticeship and industry qualifications alongside practical, on-the-job training with experienced engineers. As their knowledge, competence and experience develop, there are opportunities to progress into roles such as Lift Engineer, Advanced Engineer, Senior Engineer and, in time, specialist roles such as Technician, Tester, Regional Field Trainer or operational and management positions.
