The Company

Going Up is one of Australia's largest independent Australian-owned elevator companies, proudly manufacturing, installing, servicing and modernising lifts along Australia's east coast.

We're known for delivering quality work while maintaining a supportive, down-to-earth culture where our people are genuinely valued. Due to continued growth across South East Queensland, we're expanding our Installation team and looking for reliable Trade Assistants to join us.
