Being a Firefighter at Leicestershire Fire and Rescue Service offers you an exciting and rewarding career with a real opportunity for progression. You may have the perception that the fire and rescue service only put out fires, but this is far from reality. As a Firefighter you will respond to incidents, but you will also take part in prevention and protection work in order to help reduce the chance of incidents happening in the first place. This is done through educating the communities and businesses that are in our local area. You will need to make sure you can communicate and teach best practices to households and businesses in order to help create 'Safer People, Safer Places'. As a Firefighter, every day is different.

We have a total of 20 fire and rescue stations – seven of which are permanently crewed by full-time firefighters, seven of which are crewed jointly by both full-time and On-Call firefighters and a further six, which are crewed solely on an On-Call basis.
