Wildland Forest Firefighter

We are recruiting both experienced and rookie wildland forest firefighters. Next Training Sessions are May 6 and May 13th. Apply now. This is seasonal employment that pays very well, is exciting and is an essential public service. We have contracts with the BC Gov Wildfire Service to provide crews to fight fires, provide first aid crews and MTC's, Danger Tree Fallers and Structural Protection crews. You can keep your current employment and sign up to firefight on call during fire season. In busy years it becomes full time during the emergency, and then it ends in the fall. Most employers will look at this as an essential public emergency service and allow and support their employees to take time off from their current employment to allow you to provide this essential community service to fight fires. You can also earn the great firefighting wages, have great experiences and provide an essential service all at the same time. Then if you have full time employment, go back to that work, usually with the support and blessing of your current employer. We also have other fire prevention and forestry work, and tree service work to augment fire season and are hiring for those positions from our fire fighters for year-round work. We provide free training for firefighter candidates and provide most of the personal gear required to fire fight. We have been in business for nearly 40 years and are a very respected experienced firefighting provider to the BC Wildfire Service. Come and join our team. Contact us for more details and to discuss this opportunity. The wages are very good, but it is hard work with long hours (lots of OT).
