This is an opportunity to join a well-established global refrigeration and HVAC business, part of a leading international group, where you can put your technical knowledge to use without carrying out hands-on engineering work.

 

Based full-time in the Bristol office, you’ll oversee a team of service engineers and technicians, coordinating workloads, supporting technical decisions and ensuring service, maintenance and installation work runs smoothly.

 

What’s on offer?

• Salary: £55,000+
• Company car
• Permanent, full-time position
• 5-hour working week – Monday to Friday
• 25 days’ annual leave
• Incentive bonus scheme
• Private medical scheme
• Pension and life assurance
• Company sick pay
• Ongoing training and professional development

 

What will you be doing?

• Supervising and supporting a team of refrigeration and air conditioning engineers, technicians and apprentices.
• Planning and allocating service, maintenance, installation and repair work.
• Coordinating engineer workloads to ensure jobs are completed efficiently and customers receive an excellent service.
• Preparing labour estimates, customer quotations and supporting project work.
• Monitoring work in progress, costs and service performance to help achieve operational and financial targets.
• Providing technical guidance and support to engineers when required.
• Identifying training needs and helping develop the skills of the team.
• Managing timesheets, expenses and relevant job records.
• Maintaining high standards of health and safety, quality and compliance.
• Working closely with the Service Manager to maximise team performance and resource utilisation.

 

What are we looking for?

• At least five years’ experience as a refrigeration or air conditioning Service Engineer or Technician.
• Strong practical knowledge of refrigeration and air conditioning systems, including mechanical and electrical aspects.
• Some previous supervisory, team leadership or mentoring experience.
• Excellent organisational and planning skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities.
• Strong communication skills and the confidence to motivate and support a team.
• A customer-focused approach, with an understanding of service delivery, costs and commercial performance.
• You don’t need to have held a formal Supervisor title before. If you’re an experienced engineer who has supported colleagues, helped coordinate jobs or taken responsibility for leading others, this could be the ideal next step.
