I’ve partnered with a respected family run Undertakers which is looking for a new Funeral Director to join its close-knit team. This role is more than just arranging funerals. It’s about guiding families through one of life’s most difficult moments with empathy, professionalism, and care. You’ll be responsible for managing funerals, supported by a team who know the value of dignity and detail.

Who They’re Looking For:

You don’t need to have worked in funeral care before. In fact, they welcome people from diverse backgrounds — if you’ve worked with people, managed logistics, and handled sensitive situations, you might be exactly who they need.

What matters most is:

* Emotional intelligence and calm under pressure

* Strong organisational skills and attention to detail

* A natural communicator who can support families and liaise with professionals

* Willingness to learn and grow with an expanding local company

What You’ll Do

* Arrange and conduct funerals with care and professionalism

* Liaise with families, medical staff, clergy, crematoria, and cemetery teams

* Maintain accurate records and coordinate logistics

* Participate in out-of-hours rota and support removals when needed

* Contribute to the smooth running of the branch

* Benefits: 25 days holiday plus Bank Holiday, pension, Xmas bonus, performance bonus, staff discount, Employee Assistance Programme and Perk Box

If you’re ready for a meaningful career where no two days are the same, and where your background is seen as a strength, we’d love to hear from you.
