Job description

Refrigeration Engineer - Coventry & Surrounding Areas

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Refrigeration Engineer to join a well‑established and supportive business operating across Coventry and the surrounding region.

In this role, you'll take ownership of your own client base, manage your own diary, and build strong working relationships with a variety of customers. You will receive appointments via a company‑issued laptop, giving you the freedom to plan your day efficiently. Although you'll work independently, you'll always have support available when needed.

This role is based on a 45‑hour working week, with overtime paid for any hours worked over 45. You will also be required to join an on‑call standby rota approximately 1 in every 6 weeks. In addition, you will have the flexibility to opt in or out of personal use of the company van.

What we're looking for:

• Proven experience as an Engineer within commercial refrigeration
• A Level 2 gas engineering qualification
• A full UK driving licence
• Strong customer service and communication skills

This is a varied and rewarding role, involving maintenance and repair across a broad range of equipment, from integral freezers to remote refrigeration packs and everything in between. The business actively promotes internal development, offering clear pathways for progression and long‑term career growth.

Our client is committed to making your work‑life as smooth and straightforward as possible. Your van will be fully equipped, you'll be paid door‑to‑door, and you'll be recognised and rewarded for the work you complete, because this isn't just a job, it's a career.

Key Responsibilities

• Carry out refrigeration engineering activities to agreed standards, working with minimal supervision.
• Maintain cold rooms and integral cases; seek support as needed for more complex fault‑finding on remote systems.
• Monitor outstanding service calls in your area and act promptly to reduce delays.
• Regularly review and maintain van stock levels.
• Uphold and promote the company's core values and professional standards.
• Follow all processes, procedures, and working practices.
• Undertake any reasonable requests from management or colleagues.

This role offers an excellent benefits package and the opportunity to grow your career within a supportive and forward‑thinking organisation.
