Airconditioning & Refrigeration + Mechanical Plumbers
Vehicle + Super + OT | Build Our HVAC Division
Elite Trades Australia is growing our HVAC division and we are looking for a responsible operator — not just another installer.
We want a
mechanical plumber / HVAC technician / senior air conditioning installer
who can run jobs properly, manage themselves, take ownership of quality, and help us build a team around them.
This role is for someone who wants more than just turning up, installing a unit, and going home. You will be trusted to run your day, manage site outcomes, communicate clearly, and help shape how our HVAC division operates.
We are based in
Laverton North
and complete work across Melbourne.
What you'll be doing
You will be installing and managing HVAC jobs including:
Single-head split systems
Multi-head split systems
Ducted refrigerated systems
System upgrades and replacements
Residential and light commercial HVAC work
Site checks, install planning and job handovers
Managing apprentices, labourers or subcontractors as the team grows
Helping improve install standards, workflows and quality control
You will be expected to
own the job from start to finish
— not wait for someone to hold your hand.
What we're looking for
We want someone who:
Has strong HVAC installation experience
Minimum 2-3 years of HVAC installation experience is required
Can run jobs without being chased all day
Takes pride in clean, compliant, high-quality installs
Can deal professionally with customers, builders and internal staff
Can plan ahead, order what is needed and avoid messy reattends
Is calm under pressure and can solve problems on site
Wants to grow into a leading hand / supervisor / division leader role
Can help train and build a strong HVAC crew underneath them




This is not a role for someone who needs constant supervision.

Current driver's licence
Mechanical plumbing registration/licence or strong HVAC trade background
Mechanical plumbing registration/licence is mandatory for this position
ARC refrigerant handling licence suitable for the work you perform
Experience with split systems, multi-heads and ducted installs
Ability to read scopes, plan jobs and complete handovers properly
White Card
Strong attention to compliance, photos, commissioning and paperwork
Gas, electrical awareness, plumbing background or experience in heat pumps is also highly regarded.
What's on offer
Super
Fully maintained company vehicle
Fuel card
Paid annual leave and personal leave
Paid overtime
Consistent workflow
Real progression into leadership
Opportunity to help build the HVAC division from the ground up
This is a strong opportunity for someone who feels capped where they are now and wants to step into a bigger role.

The right person
The right person for this role is probably already trusted where they work now.
You might be the person who fixes everyone else's mistakes.
You might already be running jobs but not getting paid or recognised properly for it.
You might be ready to step into leadership but your current company has no real path for you.
If that sounds like you, we should talk.
