An on-call firefighter is someone employed by a fire and rescue service who is ‘on-call’ to respond to a range of emergencies and to engage with their community.

They respond from home, or another place of work, where they have everyday lives and jobs – until their pager sounds and they become professional firefighters.

Put into more general terms, an on-call firefighter could be classed as a part-time firefighter.

Part-time or not, though, they are fully trained and experienced people on the front line, saving lives and protecting people. Visit http://www.syfire.gov.uk/find-a-job/register-your-interest/ and fill in your details.
