Are you passionate about helping to improve the safety of the communities within West Yorkshire and are interested in joining our Fire Protection Team as a Business Fire Safety Advisor?

We have a number of exciting opportunities available, where you could come to work every day knowing you have played your part in keeping people safe from the risk of fire.

These fantastic opportunities give you the chance to make a real difference to people in West Yorkshire, the Fire Service, and the Fire Authority by joining an award-winning Fire Protection Team.

Our Business Fire Safety Advisors provide support and advice through visiting premises to ensure buildings comply with fire safety law whilst also identifying breaches in fire safety legislation supporting our inspectors to bring about compliance.

You could be at the forefront of helping us make a difference.

We are looking for enthusiastic people who care deeply about fire safety. You must have the ability to work flexibly with minimum supervision to meet priorities. We will provide training which will be in line with the role map for a Business Fire Safety Advisor as set out in the NFCC Competence Framework.

One of just five metropolitan Fire Services in the country, WYFRS offers an excellent package to all our staff including a Local Government Pension Scheme, access to free parking, flexible working, an employee assistance programme, training and development opportunities, sports and social clubs and the use of an on-site gym free of charge. Not only that but the Service received an impressive ‘good’ report from Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire & Rescue Services (HMICFRS) at its most recent inspection published in July 2022.

You also get to work in the beautiful county of West Yorkshire with its impressive and varied landscape.
