Chiller Engineer

Permanent

£55,000 - £63,000

If you have spent your career on chillers and close control cooling – and you want to work somewhere that only does the serious end of the market – this is worth a look.

These roles are with a specialist critical cooling contractor working exclusively in data centre environments. No domestic work, no low-grade splits. Just chillers, CRAC/CRAH units, VRF/VRV systems, and complex close control equipment on live mission-critical sites. They are working with some of the biggest names in the data centre space and they have vacancies across three regions right now – Midlands, South East, and the M4 corridor.

What’s on offer

  • £55,000 – £63,000 depending on experience
  • 47.5-hour week with door-to-door travel pay
  • Fully equipped Transit Custom van, laptop and iPhone
  • 25 days holiday plus bank holidays
  • Nest pension
  • Manufacturer-led training including Schneider accreditation
  • Immediate start available – van and tools ready to go

What you’ll be doing

Field-based service and maintenance across chillers, VRF/VRV systems, and CRAC/CRAH units at data centre sites. You will be attending planned maintenance visits, responding to occasional call-outs, and fault-finding on high-end critical cooling equipment. The team is small and experienced, which means you will be trusted to work independently, make decisions on site, and represent the business properly in front of client teams. Some regional travel and occasional overnight stays will be required.

What you’ll need

  • Strong hands-on experience with VRF/VRV systems
  • Chiller experience, particularly with TurboCore compressors or close control cooling, is a significant advantage
  • F-Gas certification
  • Full UK driving licence
  • Comfortable travelling across your region and occasionally beyond
  • Someone who takes ownership, communicates well, and works without close supervision

Who you’ll be working for

A founder-led specialist contractor that has built a strong reputation in the data centre cooling market by doing one thing well. The directors are engineers themselves – they have not drifted into management from the wrong direction. The business is in a clear growth phase, with long-term preferred supplier relationships in place and a pipeline of work already secured. It is the kind of place where the work is technically interesting, the team is tight, and your ability actually matters day to day.
