About the Role:
As a Refrigeration & Air Conditioning Technician with Keisan Refrigeration, you’ll work across a diverse range of marine, defence, oil & gas, commercial and industrial environments. A key part of the role is maintaining and responding to urgent breakdowns on refrigeration and air conditioning systems across fleet vessels, helping keep critical equipment operational and reliable.
You’ll be involved in planned maintenance, breakdowns, fault finding, repairs, installations and commissioning across a variety of specialised refrigeration and air conditioning equipment.
The role offers plenty of variety, with opportunities to work both on vessels and at land-based facilities, supporting clients across the Northern Territory and interstate. You’ll work with experienced technicians, solve challenging technical problems and gain exposure to equipment and environments that you won’t typically encounter in a standard domestic service role.
If you enjoy marine work, technical fault finding and variety, this is an opportunity to build a long-term career with a growing specialist HVAC&R contractor.

-
Diagnose, repair and maintain commercial, industrial and domestic refrigeration and air conditioning systems.
- Perform preventative maintenance, routine servicing and fault-finding.
