Chiller Engineer (Foot Mobile) £45,000-£55,000
Covering sites mainly around London Bridge
An excellent opportunity has arisen for an experienced Chiller Engineer to join our client, a growing specialist HVAC business delivering maintenance and engineering services to a portfolio of blue-chip commercial clients.
Established for over six years, our client has built a strong reputation within the industry through technical expertise, customer service and providing practical, cost-effective solutions. Due to continued growth, they are now looking to recruit their first directly employed engineer to support an expanding workload.
This role offers a rare opportunity to join a business at an early stage and become a key part of its future growth. Unlike many mobile engineering positions, the majority of sites are located within a concentrated area, making this a predominantly foot mobile role with significantly less time spent driving between locations.
The Role
You will be responsible for carrying out service, maintenance, fault finding and repair works across a range of commercial chiller systems. The position is largely focused on chillers, with occasional requirements to work on VRF systems, split systems and associated HVAC equipment.
This is a hands-on role requiring a technically strong engineer who can work independently, manage their own workload and provide a high level of service to commercial clients.
Daily Responsibilities will include:
Planned preventative maintenance (PPM) on commercial chiller plant
Reactive maintenance and breakdown response
Fault finding, diagnosis and repair of chiller systems
Servicing screw and centrifugal chillers
Carrying out remedial and repair works
Supporting minor installation projects when required
Occasional work on VRF and split systems
Producing service reports and maintenance documentation
Liaising directly with clients and site representatives
Ensuring all work is completed safely and to a high standard
Essential Requirements:
Proven experience working on commercial chiller systems
Strong service, maintenance and fault-finding background
Experience working on screw and centrifugal chillers
Ability to diagnose faults and carry out repairs independently
Experience with VRF systems
Experience with split systems
Chiller installation experience
Strong communication and customer-facing skills
Self-motivated and capable of managing your own workload
What's on Offer:
Up to £55,000 basic salary (dependent on experience)
Predominantly foot mobile role
Overtime opportunities
Pension scheme
Holiday allowance to be discussed
Opportunity to become a key member of a growing specialist business
Long-term progression opportunities as the company continues to expand
This role would suit an experienced Chiller Engineer looking for greater autonomy, less time spent on the road, and the opportunity to join a business where their contribution will have a genuine impact.
