A Commercial Refrigeration Engineer position covering West Yorkshire and the M62 corridor, with the role approximately 70% refrigeration and 30% air conditioning.

This is a good fit for an engineer whose background is primarily in commercial refrigeration and who wants a varied service and maintenance role rather than supermarket work.

The work covers established customer sites across food production, convenience retail, education, hospitality and commercial premises, including systems ranging from individual refrigeration equipment through to larger pack and multi-compressor systems.

Schools and education sites
Pubs and clubs
Commercial premises
Sites with refrigeration pack systems
Multi-compressor refrigeration systems
Cold rooms and associated commercial refrigeration equipment
There is no supermarket work and no CO2 refrigeration involved.
The role includes a mixture of planned preventative maintenance, servicing, fault finding and reactive breakdowns. There is also regular opportunity to pick up additional overtime, particularly during the summer months.
Weekend work is available where required, including PPM work at factories and other sites that can be accessed outside normal operating hours.
