On-call Rescue Personnel

Do you want to help the municipality's residents and visitors feel safe in their daily lives? Then you are the person we are looking for to take on the role of on-call rescue personnel - welcome with your application!

Description

Tanum's rescue service consists of two RIB stations (on-call rescue personnel), one station in Hamburgsund and one in Tanumshede.

We are about 60 employees and are part of the Western Rescue Region.

We now want to strengthen our team and are looking for colleagues for both our station in Hamburgsund and our station in Tanumshede. We are seeking more firefighters who can serve in an on-call group or in a pool group.

Job Responsibilities

Working as an on-call firefighter means that you help create safety in the community. You have another job or are studying but are prepared to respond quickly to the fire station when the pager goes off, so that the rescue vehicle can leave the fire station within 5 - 7 minutes. You are part of an on-call group that is on standby according to a set schedule, usually every fourth week.

As a group, you solve tasks together and are dispatched to various emergency situations such as fires, traffic accidents, drownings, and other situations where the need for a quick response can be crucial.

Qualifications and Personal Attributes

To succeed as a firefighter, the following qualifications are required:

• fully healthy, confirmed by a health examination
• basic fitness, confirmed by a treadmill test
• have at least a B driver's license and access to a personal vehicle
• be able to swim
• live and work within 5 minutes (Tanumshede) - 7 minutes (Hamburgsund) from the fire station
• permission from your main employer to leave the workplace for alarms, possible drills, and training

You who apply are a person who:

• shares the values of trust, responsibility, respect, and care
• wants to make a difference in the community
• has both feet on the ground and a heart in the right place
• enjoys developing and learning new things
• wants to solve tasks together as a team.

We are also looking for various qualities and personal attributes that are important in the rescue service. We know that different professional skills and backgrounds contribute to increased competence. We also value the competence that a balanced age and gender distribution, as well as ethnic and cultural diversity, brings.

We Offer

To provide a solid foundation for the work as a firefighter, you will first be trained internally for about two to three weeks during the first year. After that, you will attend one of MSB's (Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency) rescue service-adapted training or equivalent training that lasts six weeks.

You need to be prepared to obtain a C driver's license (truck), which will be funded by us. To maintain good skills, you will train approximately 50-60 hours per year, mostly in the evenings. Salary is provided for on-call duty, drills, training, and any alarms.
