Give yourself the best chance of joining the fire service, or furthering your career, with our innovative online practice and promotion support.
We don’t spend time telling you the theory, we replicate the real-life assessments and processes you will face so you can practice to pass. We put you through your paces with practical interviews, presentations and other exercises, then provide detailed feedback from our team of experienced associates.
P2P’s mission is to deliver current, high-quality recruitment, selection and promotion support and practice at low cost. Our services help FRSs deliver their Succession Plans and People Strategies, so your staff deliver to their full potential on the day.
Every member of our diverse team has years of experience in their given areas. Our team comprises current and former managers/officers, staff and non-service associates (NSA). The role of NSAs is so important – they bring diversity and a wealth of experience, knowledge, expertise, and thinking to ensure your FRS meets the needs of all its communities.
Our executive team of experienced public service leaders, headed up by a former Chief Fire Officer and former Deputy Chief Constable, work with your service to build a bespoke programme of support to help you achieve your goals.
We work with each service to replicate recruitment, selection and promotion processes, providing officers and staff of all ranks and roles with the opportunity to practice mock promotion, selection processes and assessments via an easy-to-use online portal.
We work with organisation s across the UK to support the recruitment and progression of candidates, including those from underrepresented groups, with a mix of 1-to-1 sessions and group workshops, providing real-time practice interviews and exercises with experienced practitioners.
We can also train your associates to develop their skills and gain confidence in the assessment process whilst challenging unconscious bias.

The benefits of P2P’s methods and approach are proven and broad – to those wishing to join the Fire and Rescue Service, to the future leaders of the FRS, to those who have recently failed a promotion process but have potential, to YOUR organisation.
To be different and stand out from the crowd, FK and P2P can provide an offering to services whereby they can access psychometric tests which are cross mapped over to the FRS Leadership Framework (FRSLF) and Code of Ethics (COE).
Such an approach will give FRS’s a distinct advantage in relation to their People Strategy narrative for Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire & Rescue Services (HMICFRS) concerning the People Pillar.
P2P builds a values and ethical based development approach, helping deliver cultural change within the sector.
A programme is tailored to the needs and context of a specific FRS and therefore helps create change in FRS’s across the UK
The cultural change programme is cross-mapped and helps achieve the aims of:
The NFCC Leadership Framework and Core Code of Ethics
The HMICFRS inspection framework by helping develop leaders who are committed to and demonstrate their values and promote a positive, diverse, equal and inclusive culture
The Fire and Rescue Service Equality Framework (FRSEF) by supporting Services positive action to address under-representation in leadership roles and developing leaders who are committed to creating a diverse, equal and inclusive organisation
