HVAC-R Journeypersons or 3/4th Year Apprentice Location: Wherever the problem is in Alberta (and sometimes across Western Canada — we get around)
Keep Your Cool. Fix the Chaos. Cash in When You Nail It. Let’s be real — refrigeration isn’t glamorous… until everything breaks and suddenly you’re the most important person on site.
At Gateway Mechanical , we’re looking for Journeyman & 3/4th Year Apprentice Refrigeration Technicians who know their stuff, don’t panic under pressure, and maybe even enjoy the challenge (just a little).
If you like variety, hate boredom, and take pride in doing the job right the first time — you’ll fit in just fine.
Who We Are (Quick Version — No Fluff) Around since 1968 (we know what we’re doing)
40,000+ service calls a year — yeah, we’re busy
Local crews backed by serious technical brainpower
Translation: You won’t be stuck guessing. You’ll have support when you need it — and room to run when you don’t.
The Gig This role isn’t just service. And it’s not just projects.
It’s both — because doing one all the time gets boring.
You’ll:
Jump between service calls and project installs
Fix what’s broken
Build what’s current
Figure things out when they don’t make sense (because they won’t always)
One day you’re saving a grocery store’s product. Next day you’re installing a brand-new system like a boss.
What You’ll Actually Do Diagnose issues like a detective (minus the trench coat)
Repair and maintain commercial & industrial HVACR systems




Install and retrofit equipment — clean, compliant, and done right
Read blueprints without pretending you understand them
Keep your paperwork tight (yes, it matters)
Show customers you know your stuff without talking in circles
Let’s Talk Projects (aka Where You Can Shine) We don’t just want bodies on-site — we want people who take ownership.
Project work = opportunity to earn more
If your projects are:
You get rewarded. Simple as that.
No gimmicks — just recognition for doing solid work.
What Makes You “That Tech” You:
Don’t wait around to be told what to do
Can troubleshoot without spiraling
Show up on time (it’s not optional)
Communicate clearly — no guessing games
Actually care about safety (and your fingers)
Know when to ask for help — and when not to
You’ll Need Journeyman Cert (or indentured Apprentice)
Supermarket experience — big plus here
2+ years experience
Ability to handle on-call rotation without disappearing
Valid Class 5 license + decent driving record
Gas ticket
Fall Protection, AWP, H2S (you know the drill)
Why Gateway? You won’t be bored
You’ll actually grow your skills
You’ll work with people who know what they’re doing
And when you perform — it pays off
The Bottom Line If you:
Fix problems instead of walking away from them
Take pride in your work (even the messy jobs)
Like a mix of service calls and building projects
And want to be part of a team that actually pulls its weight…
