Station Officer

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Station Officer is a rank in a number of Commonwealth fire services, including those in the United Kingdom and the New Zealand Fire Service.

In New Zealand a Station Officer is either the single officer on a watch in a single-appliance station, with three firefighters reporting to them, or one of several officers under a Senior Station Officer at a station with multiple appliances. The rank badge is a single impeller.

In the United Kingdom, a Station Officer usually commands a station and is responsible for several watches commanded by Sub-Officers (although they may command a watch in a very large station). The rank badge is two impellers.
