Job Description
Want to know more about the role of a Firefighter?
We invite you to register your interest in attending one of our upcoming Have a Go Sessions: Firefighter Recruitment Awareness.
These sessions are a fantastic opportunity to:
- Learn more about the role of a Firefighter
- Explore the various stages of the recruitment process
- Get hands-on experience with some of the equipment we use
- Find out more information on how rewarding a career in the fire and rescue service is, and what paths of progression there are
- Ask questions and meet members of our team
Please ensure that you have read the information on our website about the role. Click here to take you to our Recruitment Information.
Have a Go sessions are open to all, and if you attend there is no obligation to apply to be a Firefighter in the future, but we'd love it if you do!
Equally, you do not have to attend a Have a Go session to apply; it simply gives you an understanding of the role, recruitment process, and allows you to ask any questions you may have.
Please note: You MUST be at least 18 years of age at the start of the initial training course which is likely to start in Spring 2026. There is no upper age limit.
We will be running awareness sessions in August and September 2025 and once you have registered your interest you will be emailed a link to book your place.
If you have any questions, please email: DFRSinclusion@derbys-fire.gov.uk
