HVAC Installer / Refrigeration Mechanic
Earn 45 to 60 AUD/hr on major Brisbane multi-res projects. Work secured to end of 2028, RDO every 4th Friday, and vehicle provided.
Why Apply
If you are a qualified HVAC installer or refrigeration mechanic who wants strong pay, serious job security, and career-building work on major Brisbane developments, this is the role worth making the move for.
Ridge Air Conditioning is a 30-year established full turnkey HVAC company based in Banyo, Brisbane, delivering medium to large scale multi-residential projects across South East Queensland for major developers. Work is contracted through to the end of 2028 with a further pipeline already being designed beyond that. With 43 tradespeople on the team and 10 to 15 year tenure common among senior staff, this is a company that looks after its people for the long haul.
The Role
You will be based in Banyo, Brisbane, working across medium to large scale multi-residential construction projects in the Brisbane CBD and inner suburbs. This is commercial and multi-residential HVAC installation work on serious developments for major property developers. The expectation is that you can read mechanical services drawings, work independently on site, and contribute positively to a large, professional team.
Whether you call yourself an HVAC installer, refrigeration mechanic, refrigeration technician, air conditioning installer, or AC mechanic, the core requirement is the same: a current ARCtick licence, proven installation experience, and a genuine team-first attitude.
Day to day you will be across:
Strong hourly rates with overtime on top, work secured to the end of 2028, and 41 days of paid time off per year on premium Brisbane developments is a combination that is genuinely hard to find in the HVAC trade. The company has been operating for 30 years and looks after its people for the long term. For a qualified HVAC installer or refrigeration mechanic ready to make the move, this one stacks up from every angle.
