🔥 We’re recruiting On‑Call Firefighters! 🔥
Looking for a role that’s rewarding, flexible, and makes a real difference in your community? Join Northamptonshire Fire & Rescue Service as an on‑call firefighter.
As a member of our on‑call crew you could be from any walk of life — teachers, mechanics, gardeners, parents, business owners and more. No previous experience is needed; we’ll provide full training. What matters most is enthusiasm, a good level of fitness, and the ability to reach your local fire station within 8 minutes when your pager sounds.
As an on‑call firefighter, you’ll not just deal with fires and will respond to a variety of incidents and activities including:
🚒 Attending road collisions
🏊♂️ Water rescues
💧 Assist at floods
🐾 Rescue animals
🗣 Share safety advice at community events
We are a welcoming, inclusive Service and particularly keen to hear from people available during the day or those with flexible work or family commitments.
Interested? Ready to make a difference?
