A workplace where everyone belongs
At Cambridgeshire Fire and Rescue Service, we know that stronger teams are built on diversity, inclusion, and respect. We serve a wide range of communities across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough, and we’re committed to ensuring everyone feels valued, supported, and empowered - both our workforce and the communities we protect.
What inclusion means to us
We don’t just talk about equality - we live it. Here’s how we make it happen:
- Listening and learning – We take the time to understand the needs of our staff and the people we serve.
- Providing the right support – Different people have different needs, and we adapt to make sure everyone can thrive.
- Creating an inclusive culture – Everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and respect.
- Fair opportunities for all – Our recruitment and promotion processes are based on skills, passion, and potential, never bias.
Why it matters to us
Inclusion isn’t just a ‘nice to have’—it’s essential. Whether it’s how people access our services or how we build our workforce, everyone deserves fairness, respect, and equal opportunities. As a public service, we have a legal responsibility under the Equality Act 2010, but more than that, we believe it’s simply the right thing to do.
Keeping ourselves accountable
We continuously review how we’re doing when it comes to equality and inclusion. Our Recruitment Team monitors diversity data to understand our workforce better and ensure our hiring processes are fair, inclusive, and open to all. Your information is always kept strictly confidential and used only for improving our approach.
We’re building a workplace where everyone can thrive, contribute, and feel like they belong. No matter your background, your skills and passion could make a real difference here.
Join us and be part of an inclusive, forward-thinking team.
