Sales Engineer / Senior Sales Engineer (Hunter) - Lift Service

🌍 Who are we?

Operating across Europe and Asia, WeMaintain specialises in the maintenance and modernisation of lifts and escalators, combining hands-on technical expertise with technology and data.

Our approach is built on a simple belief: maintenance can be more reliable, transparent and effective when teams have the right tools, the autonomy to make decisions and a clear understanding of what’s happening across the equipment they look after.

Since 2026, Otis has been our majority shareholder. WeMaintain continues to operate independently, retaining its own organisation and culture while benefiting from additional resources to support our growth.

Three core values guide the way we work every day:

• Care (looking after others): treating colleagues and customers with respect, consideration and a genuine sense of responsibility.

• Grit (determination): seeing things through with high standards, commitment and perseverance.

• Uniqueness (being different): embracing different perspectives, fresh ideas and new ways of doing things.

Our ambition is to raise the standards of maintenance, alongside the people who make it happen every day.

👑 About the Role

This role focuses on growing our lift and escalator maintenance portfolio in Singapore. It’s a genuine new-business role: you’ll create opportunities and own the full sales cycle, from first contact through to contract signature.

We maintain lifts of all brands, so your market is every building in Singapore, whatever equipment is installed. You’ll sell an offer built on transparency, technology and data, combining the agility of WeMaintain with the solidity of Otis behind us. You’ll work closely with our Operations team on site assessments, solutions and pricing, so every proposal is credible and deliverable.

We are hiring at both Sales Engineer and Senior Sales Engineer level, and the scope will match your experience. Initially, you’ll report to Samson, our Managing Director in Singapore. The reporting line will move to a Head of Sales once that role is filled.

Job Responsibilities

• Identify and approach potential customers to grow our lift and escalator maintenance portfolio.

• Build relationships with property managers, managing agents, facilities management teams, building owners and consultants.

• Conduct site visits to understand equipment condition, operational constraints and customer expectations.

• Prepare quotations and tender submissions, including for managing agents and public-sector customers.

• Develop proposals with Operations, combining technically sound solutions and sustainable pricing, and lead negotiations through to contract signature.

• Maintain a structured, well-tracked pipeline and reliable forecasts in our CRM.

• Grow existing customer relationships across additional buildings and sites.

• Ensure smooth handovers to Operations once contracts are signed.

Is this role for you?

This role will suit someone who enjoys prospecting, meeting customers on site and turning opportunities into long-term partnerships. You’ll spend a good part of your time in the field across Singapore. It is less suited to someone looking mainly to manage an existing portfolio or work on inbound leads.

Job Requirements

• Proven sales experience in the lift or escalator maintenance industry

• A successful track record in B2B new-business acquisition

• Able to manage a full sales cycle independently, or keen to grow into full ownership of it

• Senior level: proven track record of independently winning new lift maintenance contracts

• Strong negotiation, presentation and relationship-building skills

• A good understanding of technical service contracts and the commercial considerations behind them

• A structured approach to prospecting, pipeline management and forecasting

• Professional fluency in English

Good to Have

• Established network in Singapore’s property management, facilities management or built environment sectors

• Experience selling recurring lift maintenance contracts

• Experience working with building owners, managing agents or consultants

• Knowledge of SS 550 and BCA lift regulations

• Diploma or degree in engineering or a related field

• Experience developing multi-site customer relationships

• Familiarity with Salesforce or another CRM

If you don’t tick every box but the role excites you, we’d still like to hear from you.

• Sales incentive scheme

• Medical insurance (hospital and surgical, outpatient, dental)
