Based in Saskatoon, SK | Working Across Saskatchewan and Beyond

When Critical Refrigeration Systems Go Down, You're the Difference Between Crisis and Solution.

Most people never think about refrigeration.

Until a supermarket is facing thousands of dollars in product loss.

Until an entire rack system shuts down.

Until a store, customer, or community is depending on one technician to diagnose the issue and get everything running again.

That's when your expertise matters.

At Gateway Mechanical , we're looking for Journeyperson and 3rd/4th Year Apprentice Refrigeration Technicians who thrive on challenges, take pride in their workmanship, and want to build a career with one of Western Canada's most respected HVAC and Refrigeration companies.
