Do you see yourself working as part of a close-knit team? Maybe you would like to gain skills that others simply don’t have, or you just want to make a difference in your community. Fancy a job that earns you extra money and fits around your work and family commitments?

On-call firefighters have everyday lives and jobs until their alerter sounds. Then they become professional firefighters, responding to a range of operational incidents when required. Being a firefighter is not just about fighting fires. An important part of today's service is fire and road safety prevention, education and safeguarding. When an emergency does occur, our firefighters are fully trained and equipped to deal with a range of emergencies. On-call firefighters make up approx. 90% of emergency cover in the UK – which makes them an invaluable part of our society.

For more information, please contact David Long at david.long@oxfordshire.gov.uk or come along to our training night, every Tuesday between 7pm-9pm.
