Air Conditioning Engineer

Senior Air Conditioning Engineer

Location: London

Salary: £50,000 - £55,000 + Door-to-Door Pay + Overtime + Genuine Progression

This isn't just another Senior AC Engineer role... it's your chance to help build something.

We're looking for an experienced Senior Air Conditioning Engineer who wants more than simply carrying out service calls. This is a rare opportunity to become one of the first key hires within an ambitious and rapidly growing service division.

The successful engineer won't just be joining a team—they'll be helping to shape it.

As the business continues to secure new contracts and expand across London and the South East, the plan is to build a team around this role. That means genuine opportunities to progress into Lead Engineer, Supervisor and eventually Management positions as the division grows.

If you've ever wanted to be recognised for your hard work instead of being just another number, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for.

Who We're Looking For

We're looking for someone who isn't afraid to roll their sleeves up and put the work in.

The early stages of any growing division require commitment, ownership and a strong work ethic. We need someone who takes pride in their work, enjoys solving problems and wants to be part of building a successful team from the ground up.

In return, you'll be trusted, valued and given every opportunity to progress your career as the business grows.

This role would suit someone with ambition—someone who wants their next move to be the start of a long-term career rather than just another job.

The Role

Working across a range of commercial sites throughout London, you'll be responsible for servicing, maintaining and fault-finding on a wide variety of HVAC equipment, with a strong focus on VRF/VRV systems.

Your Responsibilities

• Service, maintenance and fault diagnosis on VRF/VRV systems
• Working across Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Toshiba and Samsung equipment
• Repairs, overhauls and major component replacements
• Planned preventative maintenance (PPM)
• Commercial refrigeration and ventilation maintenance
• Working with manufacturer diagnostic software
• Maintaining excellent relationships with clients
• Delivering work to the highest safety and quality standards

What You'll Need

• Strong experience working on VRF/VRV and split systems
• Experience using manufacturer diagnostic software
• Commercial refrigeration and chiller experience
• Knowledge of AHUs and HRUs
• F-Gas Category 1 Certification
• Full UK Driving Licence

Desirable

• Additional refrigeration or electrical qualifications
• Experience across multiple manufacturers' platforms

The opportunity to become a key figure within a growing division

Why Join?

Businesses often talk about progression—but very few can genuinely offer the chance to help build a department from the beginning.

Here, your experience, work ethic and commitment won't go unnoticed. As the division grows, so will your opportunities. You'll have the chance to influence standards, mentor future engineers and develop into a leadership role while working for a company that invests in its people rather than simply filling vacancies.

If you're looking for a career where your hard work can genuinely accelerate your progression, we'd love to hear from you.
