Star Refrigeration announces engineer recruitment plans for 2014

Star Refrigeration are looking for engineers to cover their customers’ increased maintenance and monitoring requirements at all of their UK branches. Star Refrigeration, the UK independent cooling and heating contractor, is recruiting experienced refrigeration engineers, service engineers, site engineers and site managers at all of their ten branches across the UK – Aberdeen, Bristol, Cornwall, Derby, Glasgow, Leeds, London, Manchester, Newcastle, Oxford. The job openings arrive in sync with the company’s growth in the operations and aftercare business division over the last year, which provides an indication on a larger trend for 2014. “We could use another 10 to 15 people in the next 5 months,” said John Fraser, MD of Operations at Star Refrigeration. The strategy centres on the opportunity to provide high performance custom-built maintenance programs that are proven to increase plant reliability, efficiency, and therefore reduce lifecycle operating costs directly affecting business profitability. With the green legislative agenda and continuing rising energy costs driving the refrigeration and heating customer’s strategy, reducing energy consumption has a financial incentive, since in the refrigeration-dependent business, energy is a major proportion of the system running costs. The ongoing maintenance and the operating energy cost of the equipment throughout its life cycle is about 85% of the total life cycle costs. The industrial refrigeration contractor has largely weathered the recession due to its permanent commitment to sustainable growth, and will continue to evaluate trends affecting the future of all company stakeholders. John Fraser said: “We are very much looking forward to new talented engineers becoming a valuable addition to our refrigeration maintenance team.” To view all our current vacancies click here.
