Are you a Heavy Commercial or Supermarket Refrigeration Engineer looking to move into industrial refrigeration?
This is an opportunity to take your existing refrigeration experience into a different environment, working on larger systems across food manufacturing facilities, cold stores, warehouses and distribution centres throughout Manchester, Liverpool and the surrounding North West.
You don't need to have worked exclusively in industrial refrigeration. Engineers with a strong supermarket or heavy commercial background are encouraged to apply, with training and development available to help you build your experience with industrial plant.
You'll carry out planned maintenance, servicing and reactive breakdown repairs across a varied customer base, developing your technical skills while working on refrigeration systems that are critical to day-to-day operations.

  Identify faults, establish root causes and minimise equipment downtime.

  Support refrigeration systems serving food production, cold storage and distribution operations.

Industrial refrigeration experience would be beneficial, particularly within food manufacturing, cold storage or distribution. Knowledge of ammonia or CO? systems, large central plant and industrial compressor equipment would also be an advantage.
Experience with manufacturers such as Grasso, Sabroe, J&E Hall, GEA or Mycom is useful, alongside relevant industrial refrigeration or ammonia qualifications.
However, you can still be considered if your experience is mainly in supermarket or heavy commercial refrigeration. If you're confident fault-finding on larger systems and want to develop your skills in an industrial environment, this role offers a route to make that move.

The role supports major food manufacturing and distribution operations where reliable refrigeration is essential to production, storage and the movement of goods. You'll work across a range of sites, gaining exposure to industrial refrigeration applications while building on your existing experience.

If you're a Refrigeration Engineer based in Manchester, Liverpool or the surrounding North West and want to take the next step in your career, apply today.
Whether you already work in industrial refrigeration or come from a supermarket or heavy commercial background, we'd be interested in hearing from you.
