Transport Refrigeration Technician (Truck Units) – Immediate Start

You'll install, service and repair refrigeration and aircon systems across Burgersfort. Expect to be trusted with real work from your first week.

The site is in Burgersfort; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying. Weekend work is on a roster, so you won't be on every weekend.

• Clean coils, replace filters and check drain lines on scheduled services
• Commission new systems and show the client how to use the controls
• Diagnose faulty compressors, fans, contactors and control boards

• Brazing, flaring and vacuum skills you can demonstrate
• Understanding of single- and three-phase control circuits
• Comfortable on roofs and ladders in summer heat
• Code 08 driver's licence, since the job is mostly on the road

• CO2 transcritical refrigeration experience in retail stores

• Company vehicle with a fitted tool rack
