😎 Let’s Be Honest…
Refrigeration isn’t “sexy”…
Until everything crashes and you’re the one who saves the day.
If that hits? You’ll fit right in.
⚡ Why Gateway Mechanical?
👉 We didn’t just build a team - we built a crew.
- Long-tenured techs who’ve seen it all (and actually show you how)
- Zero ego, all skill - knowledge gets shared
- High accountability - you own your work
- And yeah… we laugh. A lot
We work hard and get it done right
🛠️ The Work (AKA: Not Your Average Day)
This role is not just service - it’s service + projects + construction.
- Heavy grocery store work (this is a must-have background)
- Strong exposure to CO₂ systems-nice to have
- Service calls, emergency response, retrofits
- Project work + installs - you’ll build, not just fix
- Travel across BC as required - not stuck in one lane
One day you’re saving product. Next day? On a project site leading installs.
👉 Real work. Real variety. Real responsibility.
