The Community
 
Located just 52 miles northeast of Denver and 30 miles from the Rockies, Greeley, Colorado is a dynamic, fast-growing community with a population of over 116,000 and projections to double by 2050. It is among the top 10 largest cities in the state and ranks as one of the fastest-growing metro areas in the U.S. Greeley’s strategic location near major highways and Denver International Airport makes it a regional hub for commerce, education, and culture.
 
The Fire Department
 
The Greeley Fire Department (GFD), established in 1871, provides professional, all-hazards emergency response and prevention services across a 64.5-square-mile area. Operating from seven fully staffed stations, GFD handles approximately 18,000 calls annually with a frontline team of 139 full-time employees and a daily minimum staffing of 31. The department holds an impressive ISO Class 2 rating and consistently exceeds national benchmarks in EMS response and cardiac save rates.
 
GFD provides Advanced Life Support (ALS) services at the paramedic level, while transport is contracted through UCHealth EMS. In addition to serving the City of Greeley, GFD also supports the Western Hills Fire Protection District through an intergovernmental agreement. Specialized services include hazardous materials response, dive rescue, wildland firefighting, and technical rescue operations.
 
Committed to prevention as much as response, GFD oversees fire code enforcement, public education, and fire investigations. The department also runs a community paramedic program focused on follow-up care and mental health support, designed to reduce non-emergency 911 call volume.
 
The Position
 
The Fire Marshal / Assistant Chief is a key member of the Greeley Fire Department’s Executive Leadership Team and plays a vital role in shaping the safety and resilience of the city. Reporting directly to Fire Chief Brian Kuznik, this position leads the department’s Fire Prevention Bureau and serves as a visible ambassador for the department throughout the community.

The Fire Marshal is responsible for overseeing fire code enforcement, building and site plan reviews, fire inspections, public education, and fire investigations. In addition to managing the division’s personnel and budget, this individual also contributes to the department’s broader strategic initiatives, including accreditation preparation, interdepartmental coordination, and emergency response leadership. The Fire Marshal also serves in the on-call Duty Officer rotation and may act on behalf of the Fire Chief when needed.
 
Upcoming Opportunities and Challenges:
<ul>
<li>The Fire Marshal will be responsible for putting into action several priority recommendations from the recent department assessment, including increasing fire inspections in commercial occupancies, launching a formal pre-fire planning program, and strengthening the department’s data and performance systems.</li>
<li>With Greeley’s rapid growth, the Fire Marshal must scale prevention efforts to match increased development demands—ensuring effective code enforcement, streamlined permit reviews, and proactive risk mitigation citywide.</li>
<li>The Fire Marshal will lead the efforts in creating a comprehensive Community Risk Reduction / Fire and Life Safety Education Program to ensure the community is prepared and resilient.</li>
<li>The department is actively preparing to pursue international accreditation. The Fire Marshal will assist in developing the department's first-ever Community Risk Assessment. </li>
