Fire Cadets is South Wales Fire and Rescue Service’s flagship youth activity for individuals aged 13 – 16 years of age. The programme offers young people a unique insight into
working within an emergency service. We offer fun and challenging inclusive opportunities for young people and work to develop personal and social skills through activities which promote self-discipline, teamwork and citizenship. The programme offers the opportunity to gain awards and work towards achieving a recognised qualification.
SWFRS currently host 12 Fire Cadet units. As a Fire Cadet instructor, you will be required to support and mentor young people in developing their skills, knowledge and personal
development to enable them to become effective role models in the community and progress positively onto education, employment, or further training. Fire Cadet instructors support the Fire Cadets through a range of learning styles, including paperwork linked to the qualification and a range of basic firefighter drill ground activities. Throughout your time in this role, you will be supported by a Unit Manager and the opportunity for relevant training and qualifications.
As a Fire Cadet Instructor, there is the opportunity to work at various stations, on different evenings. The programme runs in line with the school academic year with the added option of participating in a range of outdoor activities, charitable events, camps, competitions and social trips during school holidays and weekends. We are currently recruiting for Fire Cadet Instructors, for a September start date.
