Melbourne, Victoria, Australia Lineage Full time $40,000 - $60,000 per year

Lineage is the world's largest temperature-controlled industrial REIT and logistics solutions provider, with a global network of over 400 facilities, spanning 25 countries across North & South America, Europe and Asia-Pacific.

Working a Lineage is not just a job - it's an opportunity to innovate and put your mark on how food moves from the farm to dinner tables around the world. As a member of the Lineage team, you are a critical link in the food supply chain.  

The Asia-Pacific region currently includes Australia, New Zealand, Vietnam, Sri Lanka and Singapore employing nearly 3000 team members.

Position Details for Apprentice Refrigeration Mechanic

Our engineering teams keep our facilities running safely, efficiently and reliably — and we're now looking for our next Apprentice Refrigeration Mechanic to grow with us at our Laverton site.

This is an exciting opportunity to continue your apprenticeship in a global organisation committed not only to developing your technical skills, but also to investing in your long-term career.

About the Role

As an Apprentice Refrigeration Mechanic, you'll work closely with our qualified trades team to learn and support the maintenance and repair of industrial refrigeration systems, cold storage facilities and essential plant and equipment across our VIC metro sites.

You'll gain hands-on experience in:

  • Servicing compressors, condensers, evaporators and refrigeration systems

  • Diagnosing faults and breakdowns

  • Supporting preventative maintenance tasks

  • Assisting with inspections, repairs and refurbishment projects

  • Maintaining tools, equipment and workspaces

  • Using systems such as MEX and SAP to record work and track maintenance

  • Working safely in line with OH&S and risk management standards

As your skills grow, you'll have opportunities to participate in after-hours callouts under supervision and contribute to capital works, energy management initiatives and multi-site support.

What We're Looking For

Above all, we're looking for someone with the right mindset.
Experience is valuable — but attitude and potential matter most at this stage.

Our ideal candidate can demonstrate the following:

  • Currently enrolled in a Refrigeration Mechanic apprenticeship (ideally 3rd or 4th year)

  • Positive in attitude, ready to take on challenges with enthusiasm

  • A versatile team player who works well with others

  • Eager to learn, not just within refrigeration but potentially across other maintenance disciplines

  • Adaptable, curious and committed to growing both technically and professionally

  • Someone who takes pride in working safely and following instructions

  • Interested in the world of industrial refrigeration and energy-efficient systems

A driver's licence and basic mechanical understanding are helpful, but not essential. Your willingness to learn is what counts.

The Opportunity

At Lineage, you'll be part of a global organisation investing heavily in technology, safety and the development of its people.

We're committed to supporting you through formal training, on-the-job learning and broader skill development.

You'll gain exposure to a wide variety of equipment, modern industrial refrigeration systems, and real opportunities to grow into a well-rounded technician.

Why Lineage?
 

Lineage is more than just a cold storage logistics business. We're focused on being a vibrant, innovative and progressive employer where all our teams work safely, harmoniously and efficiently toward a common purpose - transforming the food supply chain to eliminate waste and help feed the world.

Lineage is dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive and authentic work environment and encourages applicants from all backgrounds to apply.
