In Skellefteå municipality, we work together across borders, in a work culture characterized by an unusually strong belief in the future. With us, every working day is about the municipality functioning and developing as well as possible for everyone who lives and works here. In both urban areas, communities and villages. It is not straightforward. Priorities of time, competence and commitment rarely are. But we can promise that it will almost always be worth it. Most of all, we work for others and each other. Then that feeling of having made a difference is quite hard to beat. Now the Rescue Service in Skellefteå Municipality is looking for firefighters. The rescue service is part of the civil engineering administration. In the municipality, there are eleven fire stations and a rescue guard which are located around the municipality. The largest fire station, where all full-time staff are located, is located in central Skellefteå. Today, approximately 170 people work as firefighters at our RIB stations (rescue personnel on standby) around the municipality. But we need to become more - women and men with different backgrounds. We are therefore looking for firefighters for the RIB stations in Kåge, Fällfors, Byske, Jörn, Boliden, Skelleftehamn, Bureå, Lövånger, Burträsk and Bygdsiljum.
