Job Description

Fire Chief

The Elizabeth Fire Protection District is seeking a Fire Chief to lead this full-service combination fire and emergency services organization serving the Town of Elizabeth and surrounding rural communities in western Elbert County, Colorado. Located about 45 miles southeast of Denver at an elevation of roughly 6,500 feet, the District serves a distinctly rural region that remains within commuting distance of major employment centers in Parker, Castle Rock, and the Denver metropolitan area.

The Elizabeth Fire Protection District (EFPD) serves a population of approximately 15,000 residents across roughly 111 square miles, with continued residential growth projected in the coming years. The District operates from 3 stations and responds to approximately 1,600 calls a year with 24 full-time career line personnel, 18 part-time line personnel, 23 reserve members, and 7 administrative employees.

EFPD is governed by a five-member Board of Directors and operates with a 2026 general fund of approximately $6 million. The District protects a growing service area that includes commercial, agricultural, and industrial occupancies, with fire risk shaped by a varied wildland environment. Residents place a high value on community connection and local tradition, hosting large events throughout the year.

The next Fire Chief of the Elizabeth Fire Protection District will have the opportunity to lead a highly respected, community-focused organization experiencing significant growth within one of Colorado's fastest-growing regions. The District is known for its strong organizational culture, committed personnel, supportive Board, and outstanding reputation for customer service. Leading a combination fire department serving an expanding community, the next Chief will inherit a solid operational foundation while guiding continued growth, strengthening EMS and organizational development, investing in future leaders, and positioning the District for long-term success.
