The retained firefighter's primary role is preventing fires and
reducing risk in the community. However, it is also about
responding promptly to operational incidents and emergencies
whenever these occur.
Suffolk Fire and Rescue Service is now better trained and better
equipped than ever to respond to an increasing range of incidents
from road traffic accidents to large scale disasters. We also get
involved with other serious emergency incidents such as those
involving shipping, rescues, rail and other incidents including
chemical spillages and flooding.
If you pass the necessary tests, you can look forward to a role
that gives you the chance to develop continuously in role and,
where you have the potential, progress to other roles. You will
work with a diverse range of people on your local fire station from
different backgrounds, both men and women, different races and
religions, to serve your community.
We are always recruiting retained firefighters. If you would
like to serve your community and gain valuable skills at the same
time please contact us by telephone now or pop into your local fire
station and enquire!
