The Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU) seeks a strategic and dynamic Fire Chief with a safety-focused mindset to lead its dedicated fire department. This Director-level position will provide strong, decisive leadership to a team of fire service professionals, ensuring operational excellence and readiness in all emergency response functions. The next Fire Chief will possess solid, hands-on experience in airport operations, ideally within an airport setting, and a clear grasp of the complex regulations and safety standards that come with managing aviation environments. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record in regulatory compliance and airport ordinances, as this position proactively monitors and addresses all safety-related issues to protect airport personnel, infrastructure, and passengers.

The Fire Chief will also play a critical role in cultivating and maintaining strong automatic and mutual aid partnerships with regional emergency response agencies to ensure seamless coordination in the event of large-scale or multi-jurisdictional incidents. The ideal candidate must demonstrate a deep commitment to the safety and well-being of everyone at RDU, encouraging a culture of vigilance, care, and professionalism throughout the department. Additionally, the ideal candidate has a track record of being a team builder across shifts and divisions while being adept at fostering and maintaining a climate of high morale and engagement.

About the Organization:
The Raleigh-Durham International Airport is governed by the Raleigh-Durham Airport Authority, an eight-member board. The Airport Authority was established by the NC General Assembly in 1939. The cities of Durham and Raleigh, along with Durham and Wake counties, each appoint two members to the board. The Airport Authority operates much like a small city and is similarly classified as such, due in part to the fact that it has its own law enforcement and crash/fire/rescue departments. The Authority employs approximately 400 full-time staff. The campus hosts approximately 5,000 badged employees who work for vendor partners (e.g., food/beverage/retail concessionaires, airlines, rental car companies, as well as a variety of janitorial, maintenance, and engineering/architectural contractors).

Served by 19 airlines, RDU offers flights to over 80 nonstop destinations across the United States, Canada, Mexico, Europe, and the Caribbean. Major carriers include American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, Southwest Airlines, United Airlines, and newer entrants like Avelo Airlines and Breeze Airways. As RDU welcomes more guests, adds new airlines, and increases the number of destinations it serves, capacity-related enhancements are underway to prepare the airport for growth. Vision 2040 is the long-range roadmap the Raleigh-Durham Airport Authority follows when making decisions about major campus construction projects. Vision 2040 calls for RDU to preserve existing infrastructure while planning for the future. Key highlights include the construction of a new 10,000-foot runway, capacity-driven terminal modifications and expansion, ground transportation, parking, roadway construction, and general aviation facilities. Details on the expansion can be found on our website here: https://www.rdu.com/vision2040/.

Both the RDU Fire-Rescue and Police departments work closely with a number of federal agencies that have a presence at Raleigh-Durham International Airport including the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP). RDU is a participating airport in the U.S. CBP’s Global Entry Trusted Traveler Network. This program allows U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents, and pre-approved citizens of Mexico and the Netherlands an opportunity to use an automated kiosk to bypass the standard passport screening lines, thereby reducing wait times.

About the Department and Position:
The Raleigh-Durham Airport Authority Fire-Rescue Department operates under the leadership of a Chief, with three shifts on duty 24/7/365 inclusive of a deputy fire chief, captain, lieutenant, and three fire engineers per shift. The Fire Chief partners with the Police Chief and Director of Emergency Operations to oversee emergency services and response operations within the Airport Authority and works closely with our Airport Operations, Emergency Operations, Risk Management, and Safety and Insurance Departments. Responsible for a budget of approximately $4.25 million and 29 authorized positions, the Fire Chief directly supervises four key leaders—the Deputy Chief of Administration and three Deputy Chiefs who manage daily shift operations. The next Fire Chief should have experience managing budgets of a similar scale, with a strong preference given to those who have worked in or have significant experience within an airport authority environment. The next Fire Chief should have airport authority experience from a comparable airport setting. Candidates with substantial military airport experience may be considered, but must demonstrate the ability to adapt to a civilian, corporate airport authority setting.

Key Position Priorities include but are not limited to:
• Fill several key leadership positions within the fire department.
• Oversee budgeting and financial forecasting, including long-term capital improvement planning (CIP) for the replacement of essential apparatus and equipment.
• Develop and implement a departmental strategic plan to guide improvements and operational excellence.
• Manage the department’s role in major airport development projects, such as the new runway, Terminal 2 enhancements, the John Brantley Boulevard roadway project, and the design and construction of a new fire station beginning in late 2025.
• Proactively plan for and respond to RDU’s continued growth in passenger volume, ensuring the fire department remains fully equipped, staffed, and trained to meet the increasing demands of a dynamic airport environment.

Required Qualifications:
• Bachelor’s degree in fire science, emergency management, or related field.
• Six (6) or more years of firefighting experience, with at least two of those years leading under a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Part 139 airport operation certificate, preferably with an airport authority.
• Four (4) or more years of related work experience in a supervisory role
• Valid NC Driver’s License
• Class B Driver’s License
• Airport Fire Officer (ARFF/WG-AAAE) Certification
• EMT Licensure and Certification
Preferred Qualifications
• Ten (10) or more years of firefighting experience, with at least two of those years leading under a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Part 139 airport operation certificate, preferably with an airport authority.
• Six (6) or more years of related work experience in a supervisory role
• Graduation from an Advanced Leadership Development Program
• Certified Airport Master Firefighter

The Successful Candidate:
• is an individual with impeccable integrity and a proven record of consistency in managing both internal and external relationships in order to develop trust and to create opportunities for collaborative problem solving, strong stakeholder relationships, and partnerships;
• thinks beyond traditional fire service by embracing a mindset that goes beyond typical fire department operations and applying strategic thinking that aligns with airport authority priorities—not just public safety norms;
• provides strong, visionary leadership in managing and developing the fire department team.
• brings proven experience and expertise in airport operations, specifically within an airport authority environment;
• demonstrates a deep understanding of regulatory compliance and risk management, maintaining vigilant oversight of all airport safety;
• prioritizes the safety and well-being of RDU’s passengers, staff, and visitors in every aspect of department operations;
• builds and maintains strong automatic and mutual aid and automatic response partnerships across the region to ensure seamless emergency collaboration;
• thinks beyond traditional fire service boundaries and aligns leadership strategies with the operational structure and priorities of an airport authority;
• understands and embraces that the RDU Airport Authority is a corporate environment—not a municipal one—and brings the right set of leadership and management skills to succeed in that context;
• recognizes that RDU is a complex, high-stakes operational environment requiring specialized, nontraditional experience; and,
• facilitates morale-building and healing within the department by addressing internal challenges with empathy, consistency, and team-centered leadership.
Salary and Benefits: The hiring range is $122,610.80 to $160,845.88 with a full range of $112,132.80 - $209,558.96.
