Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service Apprenticeship - closes 15th June.🧑🚒🚒
More than just firefighting - saving lives, changing lives, protecting lives.
As a Cheshire firefighter, every day is different and incidents are only a small part of what you will do. In fact, just five per cent of a firefighter’s time is spent responding to emergencies. The rest is spent out in the community: preventing fires, delivering safety campaigns, and helping children and young people thrive through programmes like The King’s Trust and Fire Cadets.
Joining Cheshire fire team is the start of a rewarding, meaningful career. One where you gain nationally recognised qualifications, develop specialist skills, and make a lasting impact on the communities you serve. Once you’re competent, you’ll earn over £38,800 within two years, starting on a salary of £30,384, with clear opportunities to develop your career, specialise, and progress into leadership roles.
Requirements:
* You need at least one GCSE (or equivalent) in EITHER Maths or English at grade C/4 or above. If you don’t have both, don’t worry, you can still apply. If you are successful with your application, you will complete the one you are missing during your firefighter apprenticeship, with full support from our training provider.
*You must hold a UK driving licence with no more than 3 points at the time of application.
*You must be at least 18 years old by the start of the course.
*You need to be able to swim 50 metres by the start of the course.
