HVAC / Air Conditioning Engineer

High-Specification Vehicles & Mobile Environments

Permanent | Monday–Friday | Workshop-Based | Oxfordshire

Broadreach Recruitment is supporting a specialist operator of high-specification mobile environments and is seeking an experienced HVAC / Air Conditioning Engineer to join a skilled, multi-disciplinary engineering team.

This role will strongly suit engineers from marine outfitting, aviation interiors, or high-end vehicle conversion backgrounds who are used to working on complex, safety-critical HVAC systems in confined, premium environments.

The Role

You will be responsible for the servicing, maintenance, fault-finding and repair of HVAC systems across a fleet of luxury, high-specification vehicles used in demanding commercial and live-operation environments.

The work is systems-led, detail-driven and quality-focused — comparable to yacht HVAC, aircraft cabin environmental systems, or bespoke mobile platforms, rather than volume automotive servicing.

You’ll work closely with mechanics, builders and engineers in a professional workshop environment, with ongoing training and exposure to new systems.

Key responsibilities include:

• Servicing, maintaining and repairing HVAC and air-conditioning systems

• Diagnosing faults across compressors, pipework, controls and distribution systems

• Working with integrated electrical systems (12v / 24v / 240v AC & DC)

• Supporting system upgrades and improvements

• Maintaining high standards of finish, safety and documentation

• Working collaboratively as part of a skilled engineering team

Who This Role Is For

This role is ideal for engineers from backgrounds such as:

• Marine HVAC / yacht outfitting

• Aviation interiors or environmental systems

• Luxury vehicle conversion or specialist fit-out

• Bespoke mobile environments (film, broadcast, leisure, expedition vehicles)

If you are used to working where space is tight, systems are integrated, and quality matters, this role will feel familiar.

Essential Experience

• 5+ years’ experience in HVAC or air-conditioning systems

• Proven fault-finding and diagnostic capability

• Strong attention to detail and pride in workmanship

• Reliable, professional and team-oriented

• Strong understanding of Health & Safety requirements

• Willingness to undertake ongoing training and upskilling

Desirable (Not Essential)

• Automotive, marine or aviation HVAC experience

• Knowledge of auxiliary heating systems (e.g. Webasto or similar)

• Electrical systems knowledge (12v / 24v / 240v AC & DC)

• Experience with three-phase systems or shore-power integration

• Solar or alternative charging systems exposure

Working Pattern & Package

• Permanent, full-time role

• 40 paid hours per week (Monday–Friday)

• Workshop-based (no shifts)

• Competitive salary depending on experience

• Ongoing training and professional development

• Company pension

Why This Opportunity?

• Work on high-specification, non-standard platforms

• Apply marine or aviation skills in a stable, land-based environment

• Strong work/life balance

• Long-term role within a technically capable team

• Exposure to complex, integrated systems — not repetitive work
