Job Description

Company Overview:

This Isn’t Just a Job — It’s a Path to a Licensed Trade Career.

At Executive Elevator, we don’t hire “helpers.” We invest in people who want to become licensed elevator mechanics— individuals who are smart, dependable, mechanically skilled, and hungry to learn. You'll work alongside some of the best in the business and earn while you learn a career most people don’t even know exists.

If you're serious about developing a high-level trade skill — and can prove you're not afraid of tough work — keep reading.

Important:
  • This role is based in Louisville, KY. Candidates must already live within commuting distance.
  • This position does not offer relocation assistance.


Please do not apply if:

  • You’ve only worked in retail, fast food, non-technical or warehouse box-shifting.
  • You don’t have real hands-on trade experience.
  • You’re not ready to work hard, stay late, or learn constantly.
  • You cannot travel overnight — out-of-town work is common in our industry.
  • If you have previously applied at Executive Elevator.

Elevator Mechanic Apprentice Job Responsibilities:

  • Assist with the installation, repair, and maintenance of custom elevator systems.
  • Train hands-on in electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic, and control systems.
  • Read blueprints and wiring diagrams (or learn to — quickly).
  • Troubleshoot complex mechanical/electrical issues under guidance.
  • Stay productive while waiting on callbacks, parts, or instructions.
  • Think critically, act safely, and take ownership of problems until resolved.


Elevator Mechanic Apprentice Minimum Requirements (Must-Haves):

  • 2+ years of real-world trade experience — in mechanical, electrical, construction, or industrial environments.
  • Not afraid of heights — you'll be climbing 40-foot ladders, working on scaffolding, rooftops, and elevator shafts.
  • Ability to lift 50+ lbs, climb ladders, and work in tight mechanical spaces.
  • Understanding of electrical systems, troubleshooting, and safety.
  • Ability to retain complex information and apply it under pressure.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and a refusal to give up.
  • Must pass a pre-employment drug test.
  • Must have a clean driving record (for company vehicle eligibility).
  • Must pass a criminal background check.
  • Ability to perform significant automotive work.


Elevator Mechanic Apprentice Bonus If You Have:

  • Vocational school or trade program completion.
  • Familiarity with hydraulics, pneumatics, or industrial control systems.
  • Military mechanical or technical training.
  • Prior work reading blueprints or wiring schematics.


If you are eager to kickstart your career in mechanics and be part of a dynamic team that values innovation, apply today to join Executive Elevator as an Apprentice Mechanic!

Job Type: Full-time.

  • 401(k) matching.
  • Dental insurance.
  • Employee assistance program.
  • Health insurance.

  • Paid time off.
  • Retirement plan.
  • Vision insurance.


Application Question(s):

  • Do you perform your own vehicle maintenance or repairs (beyond oil changes)?
  • Describe the most complex mechanical or electrical system you’ve worked on. What was your role?
  • This position often requires long days, overtime, and overnight travel. Are you fully willing and able to commit to that schedule?
  • Have you ever worked in a role that required problem-solving under pressure or in challenging environments (heights, confined spaces, or outdoor conditions)?
  • Do you have a valid driver’s license and a clean driving record (required for company vehicle eligibility)?
  • Are you willing to complete a pre-employment physical, background check, and drug screening?
