About Acorn
Acorn is one of the world’s largest independent manufacturer and supplier of stairlifts, with sales in over 70 countries and offices on three continents. See our list of locations here.
With international opportunities across all its departments, including media, human resources, export, engineering and IT, the firm is continually expanding and investing in its workforce.
There is a strong focus on retention and progression, where employees are encouraged to develop to their full potential. Acorn achieved the investors in people standard in 2006, and continues to invest in its most valuable resource - its people.
Employing well over 1,200 people worldwide, Acorn is proud to design, manufacture and sell its own superior DC powered stairlift. Their team of sales personnel are responsible for selling tens of thousands of stairlifts and Acorn likes to reward them with one of the best employment packages.
New employees complete a thorough induction and training programme, allowing them to build on their existing skills and improve their personal profiles.
Many employees find that, due to their particular expertise, they are invited to work abroad temporarily on business transfers. With other offices in the UK, the US, South Africa to mention a few, there is never any trouble finding volunteers for these occasional foreign trips.
Some employees have found the move abroad more permanent. Doug Jack, an early recruit to Acorn, has seen the company’s global reach grow exponentially and has now found himself General Manager of the Australian business.
For more information about opportunities at this dynamic local company, contact the recruitment team at Acorn Stairlifts, via email recruitment@acornstairlifts.com.

With more and more people using the Internet each day to find out information on products and services Acorn felt the need to establish a market leading web presence enabling it to succeed at all levels.
