• NCSO is considered an asset
• Strong knowledge of fire‑rating systems
• Able and willing to work off hours and night shift
• As the last step in the recruitment process, selected candidates will be required to undergo a pre-employment physical testing screen to assess their ability to perform the essential functions of the job. This step ensures a safe and effective work environment for all employees.
