Our Crematoriums are committed to providing a tranquil and comforting atmosphere for families as they honour their loved ones. Our Grounds Management Teams play a crucial role in creating a peaceful environment for reflection and honouring cherished memories.

If you have a passion for outdoor work, a strong sense of pride in your craftsmanship, and the ability to thrive in physically demanding environments, then we would love to hear from you

This role will suit someone who:

  • Industry experience is not needed however willingness to work in physically demanding environments throughout various weather and seasons is essential.
  • Has previous management, supervisory or team leadership experience.
  • Demonstrable understanding of groundskeeping and practices i.e., planting, pruning, landscaping, mowing, trimming and routine maintenance.
  • Attention to detail and a commitment to maintaining high standards of cleanliness and presentation.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a team.

  • Plant, prune, and cultivate flowers, plants, and trees to enhance the beautifully landscaped grounds of the crematorium.
  • Monitor pest control and weeds to preserve the health and appearance of the landscape.
  • Assist in season tasks such as leaf removal, snow clearing and winterising plants.
  • Supporting our clients with any memorial related queries whilst within the grounds.
  • Whilst the above duties will be a main part of your role, our teams work collaboratively, therefore you will be upskilled in other duties across our Crematorium Teams.
  • We are an agile team; to meet the needs of our customers requires us to be mobile and flexible, therefore you are likely to be asked to work across different locations in the local area when required based on operational needs.
