Thinking about becoming a Wholetime Firefighter in Suffolk?
If you're passionate about making a difference and ready for a rewarding challenge, now’s the time to take the first step.
Join one of our Taster Day sessions this August, a required step before applying to become a wholetime firefighter this September.
What to Expect on the Day:
You’ll hear from our team about life as a wholetime firefighter, including shift patterns and the recruitment process. You’ll tour the station, explore fire appliances, and try on protective gear. Our Health & Wellbeing team will explain the fitness requirements, and you’ll also learn about the inclusive staff networks within Suffolk Fire and Rescue Service.
Don’t Miss Out – Spaces Are Limited!
This is your chance to explore the role, ask questions, and meet the people who do the job every day.

As a modern and effective council, we offer a wide variety of careers to suit people with a range of skills, abilities and ambitions. We offer working options that flex to reflect the way people work today and take the time to understand and support your individual needs. We’re driven to make a positive difference to the world around us and encourage everyone with drive and focus to join us and build an influential and impactful career. Reimagine the possibilities.
In return, you’ll enjoy:
up to 29 days annual leave entitlement (pro rata), plus UK bank holidays and two paid volunteering days
membership of a competitive Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS)
travel, lifestyle, health and wellbeing benefits
performance-related annual pay progression, in addition to an annual cost-of-living pay increase
