Aircon Installer (Residential)

Here is work for a technician who can find a leak fast and gas a system up properly, with the supermarket refrigeration contractor in Benoni. You'll work with a small crew, so being easy to work with matters as much as skill.

This post is in Benoni (Gauteng). Please only apply if you can travel there daily. You'll start with a short induction before working on your own.
