Peyton Fire Protection District is currently accepting applications for Part-Time Firefighter positions.
Peyton FPD is looking for motivated, dependable, and community-minded firefighters interested in joining our team and serving the Peyton community. These positions are a great opportunity for firefighters looking to gain additional experience, stay active in the fire service, or supplement their current fire service employment with a flexible part-time schedule.
Part-Time Schedule
Part-time personnel will work 12-hour daytime shifts from 0800–2000 hours.
Scheduling is designed around your availability, with opportunities to work up to four shifts per month.
