Wholetime firefighter recruitment engagement sessions

The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS) will open applications for wholetime firefighter roles on Thursday, 14 August.

We are encouraging anyone interested in applying to attend one of our upcoming engagement sessions.

We will be hosting a mix of online and in-person events over the coming weeks.
