UK lifts manufacturer Stannah has appointed two industry specialists to play a key role in delivering its Network Rail lift and escalator contract.
Brendan Slevin joins Stannah as the Network Rail Department (NRD) manager, bringing extensive experience in the lift and escalator industry.
Brendan will be responsible for co-ordinating the successful delivery of the Network Rail contract, working closely with Stannah branch managers, including the London Infrastructure Branch (LIB) to ensure seamless project delivery.
Brendan’s industry experience includes overseeing lift maintenance, repair, refurbishment, and replacement across London Underground and London Overground contracts.
Daniel Bond steps into the role of London Infrastructure Branch (LIB) manager, bringing a wealth of expertise in escalator systems. He will act as the main point of contact and oversee operational reporting for Network Rail in the delivery of the contract.
In a previous role, Daniel managed the installation of the escalator portfolio for the Elizabeth Line project, including the longest escalators on the TFL system – featured in the BBC documentary, The 15 Billion Pound Railway.
Daniel also served as a Service Delivery Manager, overseeing call-outs, repairs, maintenance, refurbishments and interventions on the London Underground. As a dedicated LIB manager, he will provide focused support to the team, ensuring smooth execution and maintaining high service levels on the Network Rail contract.
The appointments come as Network Rail as announced that Stannah had re-secured its five-year lift maintenance contract as well as winning the contract to maintain escalators.
Appointing Stannah to both the lift and escalator renewal and replacement frameworks allows its Major Projects Division, which specialises in technically complex special lifts within infrastructure projects and escalators, to bid for the replacement of Network Rail current lift and escalator assets.
