Purpose of the role
The RFS, as bushfire experts, lead and manage a range of operational and organisational functions primarily directed at supporting approximately 33,000 volunteers and rural fire brigades. These brigades provide fire management, mitigation, and response services for rural and semi-rural communities and some urban fringe areas across the state.
In addition to responding to fires and supporting other brigades and emergency services during emergency disasters, volunteer brigades undertake a range of planning and preparation activities. These activities ensure communities are well prepared for the bushfire season and include community education, hazard reduction, and mitigation activities aimed at reducing the risk from fire to people and property. The Permit to Light Fire system ensures the controlled use of fire in the landscape across the state is largely implemented by volunteer fire wardens.
The position of Superintendent, RFS is responsible for protecting and serving the community by providing bushfire operational management in response to large-scale rural fires and other emergency incidents; and ensuring the safety of staff, volunteers and the community by providing enabling infrastructure, suitable procedural and process documentation and capability development.This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Australia License.
