As an Assistant Director of the Bureau of Fire Relief Audits (BFRA), you will assist the Director to oversee BFRA's operations and auditing processes. Employees in the BFRA ensure that Volunteer Firefighters’ Relief Associations’ (VFRFAs) funds are spent according to state law.

VFRAs receive state aid from a two-percent state tax on fire insurance purchased by Pennsylvania residents from insurance companies outside the state. These funds are used to pay for insurance to protect firefighters, purchase fire equipment, and to cover volunteer training expenses. VFRAs are distinctly separate legal entities from fire companies. The Assistant Director will motivate and empower bureau-wide teamwork and act as a mentor for audit managers, supervisors, and staff for professional development.
