7 months ago
About us
As a department our purpose is to help the community to prevent, prepare for, respond to and recover from the impact of fire and emergency events.
Comprising the Fire and Rescue Service, the Rural Fire Service and the State Emergency Service, QFES also supports other volunteer groups providing emergency response to Queenslanders.
QFES is one department with many services, many capabilities and many partners. The Queensland State Emergency Service (SES) is a volunteer emergency service organisation which has a high level community recognition and respect throughout Queensland and other states and territories across Australia.
State Emergency Service
The Queensland SES has approximately 6,000 active, unpaid members that perform a diverse range of functions to respond to local, State and National disasters and emergencies.
Members are trained and equipped to help their communities across a range of functions with a primary purpose to assist the most vulnerable members of the community by empowering people to help themselves and others in their community in times of emergency and disaster.
All SES members receive world class training providing them with real life skills that they use to assist their community during emergencies. Many of these skills are also transferrable to other aspects of our volunteer's lives.
As a member of the SES you will have the opportunity to work closely with other like-minded people with whom you will train and respond to emergencies together as a team, and share experiences that lay the foundations for life-long friendships.
The SES has roles for people with a broad range of backgrounds, talents and expertise. Please be aware that SES members require a level of physical fitness especially when involved in rescues, responding to natural disasters and performing other critical roles.
Roles of administration, communications, stores and welfare do not necessarily require levels of fitness however their availability are dependent on the existing membership of the SES Group.
Purpose of role
The role of the SES Local Controller is focused on the leadership and management of a SES Unit within the framework of the Fire and Emergency Services Act 1990, and the related policies and procedures of both QFES and local government.
