Do I need to live in West Yorkshire to work for West Yorkshire Fire & Rescue Service?
• If you want to become a Wholetime Firefighter or are applying for a Support role, you don’t need to live in the county to work for us. However, if you’d like to be a Retained Duty System Firefighter, you need to: • live or work within one mile of the Retained Fire Station at which you wish to serve • be able to respond within five minutes of an alarm, on foot or by vehicle at normal road speed.
