Why CMG

CMG cares for 45 crematoria and 12 cemetery sites across the UK, serving communities for over 150 years. Our work is about looking after places that matter to families and communities for generations. As part of Life Services Group, CMG shares the same three commitments as every one of our brands: meaningful purpose, helping families remember the people they love; grow with us, through training, support and pride in specialist work; and shape the future, by making crematoria and cemetery care more modern, sustainable and human.

CMG is part of Life Services Group; alongside Dignity Funeral Directors, Simplicity Cremations, Dignity Legal Services and Farewill. Together, we are building a group that can support families across more of the end-of-life journey, while each brand keeps the name, identity and specialist focus people already know. For CMG, that means more investment in modern facilities, better tools and stronger support for local teams, so colleagues can grow with us and continue caring for the places families trust.

You’ll be part of a close-knit local team who look after each other, the families we serve and the places in our care. No two days are the same, and the work you do is noticed, valued and part of shaping a better experience for communities for generations to come.

If you want meaningful work, the chance to grow with us and a role where you can help shape the future of crematoria and cemetery care, find your Life’s work.
