Update the CRM with key contract and progression information and dates.
*
Approve lift products for manufacture using the Electronic Ordering System (EOS).

Approve other lift products for manufacture via email to suppliers.
*
Maintain and update Excel databases with contract and progression information.
*
Maintain and update the library of Typical Drawings for use by the Sales team.

Knowledge of project management best practices and tools.
*
Strong organisational skills and ability to balance multiple tasks.
*
Understanding of basic engineering principles.
*
Solid IT skills, especially Microsoft Office.
Highly Desirable:
*
Experience in the platform lift industry.
*
Experience in the construction industry, working with architects and builders.
Desirable / Transferable Backgrounds:
*
Stairlifts and mobility/access equipment (incl. through‑floor lifts, hoists) – similar customer base and constraints.
*
Scissor lifts and other vertical access equipment – good understanding of safety, load, and structural interfaces.
*
Material handling / conveyors / dock levellers – integrating mechanical equipment into buildings and reading GA drawings.
