We do, from time to time, recruit inexperienced candidates to join our team of firefighters.
Once you’ve made it successfully through the rigorous selection and clearance process, you’ll attend our firefighter training course which is held at our preferred Local Authority Fire Service training centre (usually Lancashire), which may involve living away from home from Sunday to Friday for the duration of the training (usually 13 weeks) for which transport is provided.
Generally speaking, we prefer to recruit experienced firefighters and you’ll find more information on our Fire Service in the Experienced Hires @ AWE section.
