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.
Queensland Fire and Emergency Services (QFES) is the primary provider of fire, rescue and emergency management programs and services throughout Queensland. The department encompasses Queensland Fire and Rescue, Rural Fire Service Queensland (RFSQ), and also supports other volunteer groups providing emergency response to Queenslanders.
Purpose of the role
Rural Fire Service (RFS) Districts are focussed on supporting a range of operational and organisational functions in the management of rural fires, enabling field-based staff and volunteers to concentrate on immediate task execution and response. Each District encompasses operational and non-operational staff, RFS volunteers and rural fire brigades who provide fire management, mitigation, and response services for rural and semi-rural communities, including some urban fringe areas across the state.
Reporting to the Assistant Chief Officer District, you will lead and manage a small team and oversee the provision of high-level confidential administrative, asset management, and business services support to operational activities, staff, and volunteers across the District. You will set operational business priorities and manage workflows across human resources, finance, administration, records, and database management to ensure compliance with policy, procedures, and departmental requirements. You will also have a focus on the delivery of business management and asset related tasks - not as an asset manager, but in managing the processing and triaging of asset related activities.
