Group Manager and Community Risk Manager Appointments
I am pleased to be able to announce our first group of new Group Managers (GMs) and
Community Risk Managers (CRMs). You can see the appointees here.
The GMs and CRMs will be part of our District Leadership Teams (DLT), who will collectively be
responsible for leading the delivery of each of the elements of the four Rs of emergency
1982
management in the new Districts. Together with our District Managers, they will help lead our
teams as we continue to move towards a more unified Fire and Emergency.
It is important that we have the necessary range of skills and experiences within each District to
Act
successfully deliver our legislative mandate across both the built and natural environments.
These appointments today go some way to achieving that, and we will continue to build on this
as we move in to the next stages of redeployment and recruitment. As we have said throughout
the process it is important to note that our systems ensure that the people who will be leading
our response to emergencies have the skills and experience to lead that type of incident. There is
no change to this and the safety of all of our firefighters and the public is as always, our top
priority.
We will continue to operate rosters to successfully operate across the built and
natural environments.
These new roles won’t come into effect until we stand up our new structure. In the meantime,
the new appointees will continue in their current roles and we will continue operating in the
same way as we do now. I will keep you updated as we move towards the formal stand-up later
Information
this year.
Again, I would like to acknowledge those who applied for redeployment to these roles and were
not successful. Thank you for your ongoing commitment, professionalism, and dedication and for
the effort you put in to your applications and interviews.
Recruitment for GM and CRM vacancies
With the completion of this stage of the DLT redeployment, we will now open recruitment for
Official
the remaining CRM (advertising internal and external) and GM (advertising internal only)
vacancies across the country. These vacancies are now live on the vacancies page on the portal
to accept applications.
the
For those of you who submitted an application in the first round, you do not need to apply again
– we still have your application. However, we are aware of the time that has passed since you
submitted your application, so if you would like to make changes to your original application you
can do so by logging in to e-recruit.
I’m sure you will join me in congratulating the newest members of our DLTs. I’m excited to see
the teams work together to implement the visions they have for their districts.
