Work experience

Service

Firefighter

01/11/2010 - Present

During my time as a Firefighter I gained many skills involved within the

job and also life skills that are priceless. I am a fully qualified BA

(Breathing Apparatus) wearer, fully qualified to carry out RTC (Road

pump and hose drills all to a gold standard of practice. I have experienced

what is expected of an individual to work on their own to a very high

standard in various scenarios and also how important it is to be able to

work as part of a team and be a valuable member to that team to complete

tasks to a high standard. Working as a Firefighter I have also been

presented with extreme working conditions that has required myself to work

beyond expectations which I enjoy and drives me to work even harder and

better myself at what I do everyday. It helps to have a high level of

fitness in this job role also so it encourages myself to maintain and

always improve my personal fitness and setting targets for myself on a

weekly basis which is also a passion of mine which I take pride in and work

hard at.
