On-Call

Response

Our on-call firefighters are often permanently employed by other organisations but provide an on-call service to the fire service when their pager alerts them. Just like full-time firefighters, our on-call firefighters are trained to deal with a wide range of situations and incidents.

They are required to respond to emergencies every four days if working from St Helier, or alternate evenings if working from St Brelade.

Recruitment

Our on-call firefighters are part of a close-knit team and benefit from gaining a range of new skills and the ability to earn an additional salary, which fits around existing jobs and commitments, whilst making an impact on the local community.
