  • Representing Dignity Funerals with professionalism and empathy
  • Providing respectful, discreet support to families on the day of the service
  • Maintaining ceremonial standards in appearance, conduct, and service delivery

  • Demonstrates compassion, empathy, and professionalism
  • Understands the importance of presentation and discretion
  • Is physically capable of manual handling tasks, including lifting and carrying
  • Holds a Full UK Driving Licence (essential)
  • Is reliable, punctual, and flexible with working hours, including short-notice availability
  • Is comfortable with tasks that involve direct contact with the deceased

No previous experience in funeral care is required — full training and uniform will be provided.

What We Offer

  • A fulfilling opportunity to support families in your community
  • Flexible casual working arrangements
  • Full training and ongoing support
  • Uniform and all necessary equipment provided

If you're looking to be part of a compassionate team and want to support people when they need it most, we'd love to hear from you.
