Richmond, United Kingdom Funeral Partners Full time

**About Us**

John Blenkiron & Sons Funeral Services are long established in serving communities in North Yorkshire and County Durham. We offer a sensitive, professional service to the families in our care and are proud to be part of the Funeral Partners family. Together, we are leading the way in setting new standards of excellence within the profession.

Our people are key to our success, they bring a wealth of experience from both inside and outside the Funeral industry and, as an organisation, we really know what it means to work as a team. But, don’t take our word for it, see what our people say about working for Funeral Partners.

**The Opportunity**

Based at our Richmond branch, our Funeral Service Operatives are calm, professional and play a vital role in our service. They are often the first members of the team to meet our families. A good Funeral Service Operative will be able to provide reassurance to families that we will take good care of their loved ones whilst we prepare them for their final journey.

In addition to bringing people's loved ones into our care, Funeral Service Operatives play an active role behind the scenes, working in the mortuary, fitting coffins, and dressing the deceased; as well as participating in funeral services, pallbearing, and helping to ensure everything goes smoothly.

Your duties will include driving company vehicles, so you'll need a full driving licence. You'll also have a place on the out of hours, and on-call rota, which will provide an opportunity to earn additional payments.

Being a Funeral Service Operative can be challenging and rewarding, and no two days are quite the same. There is a chance to progress into other roles such as Funeral Director, with the right skills and determination. To learn more about this important role, go to our Careers page.

**What We Offer**

Working in one of our local Funeral Partners’ Branches you’ll enjoy the satisfaction of working within a small local team alongside the all the benefits of a much larger national company. We have family friendly policies and can offer flexible working as well as:

- Comprehensive training for all our roles and opportunities to achieve industry recognised qualifications.
- Full uniform
- Opportunities to work within the local community
- Reward and recognition scheme
- Regular feedback surveys and opportunities to join project groups
- Employee assistance service

In addition to your salary, you will also receive:

- 23 days annual leave plus bank holidays
- An opportunity to join our annual bonus scheme
- Life Assurance
- Pension
- Family and friends discounts
- Christmas vouchers
- Eye care
- Refer a friend scheme

**About You**

You may have worked in the Funeral industry for many years or maybe you’re looking for a new challenge. For us it’s more important that you have the right skills and attributes because we will give you all the training you need. Come and join us, we will give you all the tools you need to be a success.
