About You

- Trade qualified Refrigeration Mechanic
- Current Refrigerant Handling Licence (ARCtick)
- Current Queensland QBCC
- Current LVR/CPR certification (or willingness to obtain and maintain annually)
- Current Australian C Class (manual) Driver's Licence
- Experience in refrigeration, cold rooms and commercial HVAC systems

- Strong communication skills and ability to work collaboratively within a team
- Committed to maintaining a safe, inclusive and high-performing work environment
- Ability to pass a pre-employment medical and National Police Clearance

What We Offer

- $70–$90 per hour + super (based on skills and experience)
