Hugo Martinho , managing director . The company is very clear about their goals when it comes to the people they hire . They are considered a preferred employer despite the challenges the entire elevator and escalator industry face with recruiting young talents , and work hard to maintain the image . The company participates in campus recruitment opportunities and job fairs , which allows them to take the time to narrow the profile of people for whom they are looking . Great candidates are internationally minded ( willing to live abroad and have mastery of more than one
language ), achievement oriented and have strong leadership skills .
Schindler operates their business with best practice and people in mind . Each certification level the company has in their certification program comes with a different pay grade , allowing employees to be paid for that they are worth . The company also supports motivational events and weekly activities to promote a healthy work / life balance within the organisation .
Martinho believes that both challenging and supporting each employee is important to their growth within the company .
