Auckland, New Zealand Cgr Services Full time

About the role:
Protect lives and mission-critical assets as part of our Aviation Rescue & Fire Fighting (ARFF) teams at airfields and bases.

Service: Air Force
Specialisation: Operational Support
Location: Ohakea, Whenuapai, Woodbourne
Starting Trade Training: $64,177

As an Aviation Rescue Firefighter, you'll be part of a highly versatile Specialist Aviation Rescue & Fire Fighting (ARFF) team located at established and expeditionary airfields to enable both military and civilian aircraft operations.
The ARFF units are staffed 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to deliver an emergency response capability for Aviation, Industrial, Urban, and Rural firefighting in support of personnel, infrastructure, and mission-critical assets at airfields, defense, and local areas as well as in deployed locations.
The ARFF Trade may also support Fire Emergency New Zealand (FENZ) as well as other Emergency Service providers at Local, Regional, National, and International emergencies.
Aviation Rescue & Fire Fighting is a challenging job, both physically and mentally. You will be required to maintain a high level of fitness to conduct rescue and firefighting operations.
You will carry out regular skills maintenance training, designed to help you retain the knowledge, skills, and attributes required to make the right decisions in dangerous situations.
Camaraderie is second to none; integrity, trust, and teamwork are values held high in the ARFF trade.
All Fire Flights work a 6-day operational shift set: a day shift, a 24-hour shift, and a night shift followed by 3 rostered days off.
Your duties will range from day-to-day maintenance and servicing of operational ARFF vehicles and equipment, physical training, and maintaining your rescue & firefighting competencies to fire safety awareness training for base personnel.
Rostered onto an emergency response crew and ready to respond at a moment's notice, you'll be part of a Specialist ARFF team to enable military and civilian aircraft operations.
The principle objective of a Specialist ARFF team is to save life in the event of an aircraft accident or incident at, or in the immediate vicinity of the airfield.
RNZAF ARFF teams also provide Rural Fire Fighting Teams to save life and minimise property damage either in Defence Areas or in neighbouring civilian areas.
Further opportunities exist for you to work alongside NZ Army Emergency Responders both on deployment and through joint NZDF training.
Upon successful enlistment into the Air Force, you'll be posted to RNZAF Base Woodbourne (near Blenheim). Here you'll do 12 weeks of basic military training to find out if you've got what it takes to be in the Air force.
Minimum Requirements:

You must be at least 17 years of age.
Meet the citizenship & security requirements to gain CV security clearance for this trade.
Class 1 Full Drivers licence. Class 2 Full licence preferred.
3 years secondary school minimum; NCEA Level 2 preferred.
No requirement to wear glasses.
No fear of either heights or confined spaces.
You must be medically fit for service.
Colour perception restrictions may apply.
