The Town of Oakville is looking for new Probationary Fire Fighters to join the
Oakville Fire Department.

Working in an Incident Command System, the Fire Fighter’s role is to protect
life and property through firefighting, emergency medical and other types of
emergency incidents, often performed under conditions, which require strenuous
physical exertion. Fire Fighters are also expected to provide excellent customer
service as well as being leaders in public fire safety education.

Fire Fighters are expected to maintain a high standard of professionalism, solve
problems, work as part of a dynamic team and possess excellent interpersonal and
organizational skills. Teamwork is very important; Fire Fighters live and work
together in close quarters throughout their 24-hour shift. This requires all
team members to depend on each other to perform their duties successfully
whether having to share routine tasks at the fire station, providing services at
an emergency scene, or providing service assistance to other agencies and/or the
public.

stage and must be dated within the last 30 days from when requested.
