The City of White Rock is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace and is committed to promoting and preserving a culture of diversity, equity, and inclusion.
Located in the southwest corner of the Lower Mainland, 45 kilometres from Vancouver and only 5 minutes to the US/Canada border, the City of White Rock is a boutique, ocean-side community of approximately 22,000 citizens clustered around an 8-kilometre sandy beach and the warm, shallow waters of Semiahmoo Bay.
White Rock is known for its sunny weather, expansive beach, historic pier, delightful restaurants, and strong sense of community.
White Rock Fire Rescue (WRFR) was established in 1933 to serve and protect the White Rock community from the impacts of fire, illness, accidents, and natural or human-caused hazards.
The department is staffed 24 hours, seven days a week with four rotating four-to-five-person fire suppression crews, supplemented by auxiliary firefighters as needed.

During their career, the ideal candidate will have gained proficiency in budgeting, developing and implementing business plans, interacting with the media, and making public presentations.
Salary and Benefits:
The targeted salary range for this position is $174,778 - $205,621 annually, supplemented by a competitive total rewards package.
