Graham Barker

I started working in the lift and escalator industry in 1998, after studying Mechanical Engineering at Newcastle University. Over my career, I have worked in the fields of design, project and operational management, quality improvement and business management. In 2016, I moved into consultancy with a desire to share my knowledge and experience to benefit new and existing buildings and clients. I like few things more than helping solve problems, and regularly produce blogs and articles.

The lifespan of a lift or escalator is around 25 years. My team (and the global Cundall team) delivers high-quality, long-term solutions to meet and exceed client aims and desires. We use the experiences gained across all our sectors to enhance and improve our projects.

Having worked within small teams and large international teams, my strengths are communication and contributing to collaboration. These are the keys to managing projects and seeing jobs through to their successful conclusion. I believe that good relationships can be the differentiator for successful projects.
