Are you an experienced Industrial Refrigeration Engineer looking for a role where your skills are properly rewarded, and where you can build on your Ammonia and CO₂ experience?

This is an opportunity to join a growing engineering team working on industrial refrigeration systems across food factories, warehouses and distribution centres, not supermarket work.

You’ll be home-based, travelling directly to customer sites, with most of your work kept within your local area.

On top of your base salary of £45,000–£70,000, there is plenty of opportunity to increase your earnings through overtime, standby and additional call-out work.

The Role

You’ll be responsible for keeping a range of industrial refrigeration systems operating safely, efficiently and reliably across a varied customer base.
Service, maintain, repair and commission industrial refrigeration systems, primarily Ammonia and CO₂
Carry out planned preventative maintenance, inspections, diagnostics and reactive breakdown work
Complete fault finding and troubleshooting to minimise downtime for customers
Carry out compressor overhauls and other specialist refrigeration work
Carry out refrigerant-related work safely and in accordance with relevant legislation and company procedures
Complete service reports, maintenance records and customer documentation
Communicate professionally with customers, explaining faults, work completed and recommendations
Work independently across multiple industrial sites while maintaining high standards of health and safety

You’ll work across food production facilities, cold stores, warehouses, distribution centres and other industrial environments, giving you exposure to a wide variety of systems and challenges.

What We’re Looking For

We’re looking for an experienced engineer who is confident working independently and enjoys the technical challenge that comes with industrial refrigeration.
Around 3–5 years’ industrial refrigeration experience
Strong experience with Ammonia and/or CO₂ refrigeration systems
Good understanding of industrial refrigeration principles, controls and safety
Strong fault-finding and diagnostic ability
Valid F-Gas certification
Ammonia handling training/certification, or relevant practical experience, relevant qualification in Refrigeration, Air Conditioning or Mechanical Engineering
Professional approach to customer service, communication and health & safety
Full UK driving licence

Don’t have experience with both Ammonia and CO₂? That’s not necessarily a deal-breaker. If you have a solid commercial refrigeration background and are keen to develop your knowledge, there is training available to help you build your expertise.

What’s In It for You?

This is a package designed to properly reward experienced industrial refrigeration engineers.
£45,000–£70,000 base salary, depending on experience and contract
Lucrative weekly standby payment
Time and a half overtime Monday–Saturday, double time Sundays and Bank Holidays
Door-to-door travel paid at time and a half
Plenty of overtime and the opportunity to significantly increase your OTE
Company van with personal use
Company phone and table, laptop provided for access to customer site portals
25 days’ holiday + Bank Holidays
Private Medical Insurance and salary sacrifice pension
Ongoing professional training and development
Develop your Industrial Refrigeration Career

Whether you’re already highly experienced with Ammonia and CO₂ or you’re a refrigeration engineer looking to expand your skill set, you’ll have the opportunity to keep developing.

Location

This is a home-based mobile role, with engineers travelling directly to customer sites. You can be based anywhere across England, with the strongest preference around Tamworth, Birmingham, Manchester or Sheffield and surrounding areas. Most of the work will be local to your area, although some UK travel will be required depending on customer requirements.
