About the employer
-
Back in 1993, Darren Fletcher started Lostock Installations with one simple idea: look after people properly. He began with a single specialism, sprinkler maintenance, and a belief that if you treat clients like family, the rest takes care of itself.
Thirty-three years on, that's still how we work. We've grown into one of the North's most established and trusted names in airport/commercial maintenance, fit-outs and installations, and today our team works for major brands including Chanel, Estée Lauder Group, Jet2 and Avolta (the company behind World Duty Free). If you’ve ever walked through Manchester Airport, you'll have passed our work without even realising it.
