About you

  • Any previous bereavement / funeral industry experience would be beneficial (Crematorium Assistant / Crematorium Technician / Funeral Operative / Funeral Arranger etc) however not essential as full training is provided.
  • Emotionally resilient and organised with excellent attention to detail.
  • You will need to be able bodied as manual handling will be part of this role. PPE will be provided for your safety.

  • Flexible in approach to working hours.
  • Comfortable communicator able to speak to people in a caring and understanding manner.
  • Good level of IT skills and comfortable with Word / Excel and emails.

What We Offer

If you would like to join the Westerleigh team, you can be sure of a warm welcome, ongoing training and development and a sense of pride by truly making a difference every day to the families we serve. No two days are the same and many of our Managers have developed their careers within the business.

The values we champion are Safety First, Exceptional Care, Uniquely Personal and One Team.

In addition to salary, you will also be eligible for the following benefits:

  • Company performance bonus up to 5%
  • 32 days holiday (Includes 8 days bank holiday)
