Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service is excited to announce that from Monday, 30 January, it is taking applications for on-call firefighters at all of Nottinghamshire’s on-call fire stations, except Hucknall.
If you live or work near to an on-call fire station, then this could be your new role.
Station Manager Simon Glew said: ‘On-call firefighters are a vital part of Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service. They provide an efficient, effective service that gives emergency cover across the county, trained to the same standard as our full-time colleagues.
‘In Nottinghamshire, on-call firefighters make up 38% of our operational firefighters and are generally located in rural communities, small towns and villages.
‘I’d encourage anyone to apply, even if you’ve never considered a job as a firefighter. Our on-call firefighters get a huge sense of belonging and local recognition, not only from attending incidents but also from the community outreach work.’
As part of the Service’s recruitment drive, there are several webinars and ‘Have a Go Days’ throughout the month of February. Sign up to these via Eventbrite.
