Job description

Refrigeration Maintenance Engineer

Shift: Days (Monday-Friday)

Pay: Circa £47,000 + Premium Overtime + Enhanced Pension + Sickness Pay + 8x Life Assurance and more!

Location: Corsham

Are you a Refrigeration Engineer looking to move away from extensive travel, customer sites and demanding call-out rotas into a permanent, days-based site role?

Do you want to retain the technical variety of refrigeration and HVAC while gaining flexible hours, outstanding benefits and genuine work-life balance?

Yolk Recruitment are supporting a market-leading business in their search for a Refrigeration Maintenance Engineer as they continue to invest in and strengthen their engineering team.

This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced refrigeration engineer to join a growing organisation supplying critical products and services across the UK.

Rather than travelling from site to site, you’ll be based at one modern facility, taking ownership of refrigeration, HVAC and associated equipment while also getting involved in wider maintenance activities across the site.

Whether your background is within refrigeration contracting, HVAC, facilities management, building services, food and beverage, pharmaceutical, healthcare or industrial maintenance, we’re keen to hear from engineers looking to make the move into a stable, site-based position.

What we’re looking for

• F-Gas qualification or strong practical refrigeration experience.
• Time-served apprenticeship, NVQ Level 3 or equivalent engineering qualification.
• Strong refrigeration and HVAC fault-finding ability.
• Experience carrying out planned and reactive maintenance.
• Experience working with refrigeration plant, chillers and air conditioning systems.
• A good general engineering understanding and willingness to support wider site maintenance.
• A proactive, hands-on approach to fault-finding and problem solving.
• Comfortable working independently and as part of a small engineering team.

Engineers from a range of backgrounds are encouraged to apply, including:

• Refrigeration and HVAC contractors.
• Industrial refrigeration.
• Food and beverage.
• Pharmaceutical and healthcare.
• Facilities management.
• Building services.
• Hospitals and NHS estates.
• Critical environments and data centres.
• MOD and defence.
• General manufacturing and process industries.

Experience maintaining equipment such as refrigeration plant, chillers, air conditioning systems, HVAC equipment, pumps, motors and associated building services infrastructure would be highly advantageous.

And this is what you’ll get in return

• £44,000 basic salary.
• One in five week standby allowance, taking the package to circa £47,000.
• Overtime available paid at x1.5 and x2
• Double time on Sundays and Bank Holidays.
• Flexible start times available.
• One Saturday per month with TOIL.
• Excellent pension scheme with enhanced employer contributions of up to 8%.
• 25 days holiday plus bank holidays, increasing with service.
• Enhanced company sick pay.
• Life assurance of 8x salary.
• Employee Assistance Programme and Virtual GP service.
• Employee discounts and reward platform.
• Long-term stability and development opportunities.

You’ll be joining a growing business with a strong reputation, operating within a clean and modern environment where engineers are given ownership, technical variety and the opportunity to make a genuine impact.

For refrigeration engineers currently spending their week travelling between customer sites or covering demanding call-out rotas, this offers something very different: one site, Monday-Friday days, technical variety and a significantly improved work-life balance.
