Air Conditioning & Refrigeration Engineers
At Pitkin & Ruddock, we’re not just experts in temperature control — we’re a family-run business with a reputation for excellence that goes back over 70 years. And now, we’re on the lookout for an experienced Air Conditioning & Refrigeration Engineer to join our growing team.
