Description

A long-established commercial mechanical contractor is hiring experienced Commercial HVAC-R Service Technicians for field service work across Hampton Roads.

• Communicate with dispatch and service managers using phone-based updates.
• Complete service documentation accurately.
• Participate in weekend on-call rotation.
• Travel throughout Hampton Roads, with some longer-distance customer work as needed.

What we are looking for

• At least 2 years of HVAC or refrigeration service experience.
• Real troubleshooting and diagnostic ability.
• Commercial experience preferred.
• Residential technicians may be considered if they have strong service skills.
• Valid driver’s license.
• Ability to pass drug testing and driving record review.
• Willingness to work approximately 45 or more hours per week.
