Shropshire Fire and Rescue Service operates from 23 strategically located sites across Shropshire. On-call firefighters operate from 22 stations.

On-call firefighters have everyday lives and jobs, until their pager sounds; then they immediately make their way to the fire station. They are professional firefighters, on the front line, saving lives.

You will need to meet just three requirements to apply.

You must:

• Live or work within five minutes of an on-call fire station
• Be over 18
• Be physically fit (we will support you and give training in this area)

You must be able to provide a 84+ hours per week (this does not mean you will be working those hours, but you must be available to respond to calls)

The role calls for courage, a desire to serve your community and of course the ability to be part of a close-knit team.
