About Us – Company

Our Story

The Team

Our Directors

Colin and Coral are our Managing Directors, working in the office and on site daily running the business, it's what our customers love most about them! Colin mainly looks after the operations side on the business and can usually be found out in the field with our surveying and installation teams. Meanwhile Coral can be found in the office, working on the strategic side of the business and managing our sales and marketing teams.

Our Workplace

We strive to make 1st Choice Stairlifts an excellent place to work and aim to always do right by our employees. We understand that people have important life events that need to be attended and we give our team the flexibility to do so. We give our staff both on-the-job training as well training courses to ensure that they can continue to grow their knowledge, skills and experience. Our staff are fun, friendly, hard-working and dedicated to delivering the highest standard of service to customers.

Our long-serving staff:

Lindsey is our Sales & Installations Office Supervisor, and was one of our first ever employees back in 2006. Since then Lindsey has grown from strength to strength and risen up through our company due to her wealth of knowledge that has come from experience as well as dedicated training including a Level 3 NVQ in Customer Service, and an Assist UK Trusted Product Advisor course.

Over the years, Lindsey has attended many exhibitions, showcasing our range of products. Day-to-day she attends to orders, organising surveys and installations for all of our customers to ensure everything runs smoothly. When you first call us it's likely that Lindsey will be the first person you speak to. She's incredibly friendly, chatty and always goes the extra mile to give customers the excellent service they deserve.
Pete is our Engineer Supervisor & Quality Manager. He started with us back in 2010 as an engineer after working for multiple different companies in the industry including four manufacturers and two dealers. After spending a few years in sales, Pete wanted to return to a job where he could get his hands dirty (metaphorically of course, we always clean up after ourselves when visiting your home!) and so joined our installation team and was recognised for his extensive knowledge across our range of products.

As an Engineer Supervisor Pete is highly multi-faceted and works in conjunction with our team in the field as well as in the office. From day-to-day, Pete gives support and guidance to our engineers and aftercare department wherever needed. He also implements all health and safety requirements as well as monitors, measures and executes our quality objectives that are set by our ISO9001 accreditation.
Lucy is our Sales & Installations Credit Controller and Book-Keeper. She started with us in 2008 as a temporary team member in doing admin. As the years progressed, she picked up new skills across the business and has worked in nearly every single department including Orders, Aftercare and even Surveying!

Day-to-day, you'll find Lucy in our office, organising our sales and installations to ensure that every order is progressing smoothly and promptly so that we can get every lift installed into its new home as well as overseeing accounts.
Adam is one of our valued team of Engineers and has been with us for 13 years. Adam, also, is part of the family; he is our Managing Director - Colin’s son. Adam has an NVQ in stairlift engineering and maintenance, as well as lots of knowledge about the industry and all the lift models in our range. He also has an NVQ in painting and decorating. When Adam is not working at 1st Choice Stairlifts, his young family keep him busy! He also is very busy renovating his home, putting his painting and decorating skills to great use.
