Job description

Cemetery Sales & Operations Manager - Bilingual Spanish speaking

Location: North Bergen, New Jersey
Compensation: $80,000 Base + Commission & Bonus $120,000-$150,000

Lead with Purpose — Build with Pride

We’re hiring a Cemetery Sales & Operations Manager to lead grave and Mausoleum crypt sales while also managing daily cemetery & Crematory operations across three sites in North Bergen.

This is a high-impact leadership role ideal for a motivated, organized, and compassionate professional who can sell with integrity and manage with discipline. This is not an entry-level role.

If you're experienced in cemetery sales or direct-to-family services and want to grow something meaningful, this is your opportunity.

What You’ll Do

Sales Leadership

  • Drive both pre-need and at-need cemetery sales.
  • Work directly with families to provide meaningful, lasting cemetery solutions.
  • Train and support five employees and hold them accountable to performance.

Cemetery Operations Oversight

  • Manage day-to-day cemetery functions across 3 sites, including:
    • Landscaping & grounds maintenance
    • Grave opening & closing logistics
    • Burial and monument setup coordination
    • Manage the High volume crematorium
  • Ensure high standards of care and compliance with all regulations.

Customer Experience Excellence

  • Provide outstanding service and professionalism to families in their time of need.
  • Represent the company with compassion, respect, and clarity at every touchpoint.

Who We’re Looking For

✅ At least 5 years of experience in cemetery sales, or related direct-to-consumer services
✅ Proven track record of personally closing high-value, person-to-person deals
✅ Strong leadership skills and ability to manage teams and contractors across multiple locations
✅ Hands-on operations experience — you're comfortable being in the field as well as in the office
✅ Entrepreneurial mindset with the ability to build and scale new service offerings
✅ Emotionally intelligent communicator with strong customer service instincts

Why This Role Stands Out

✔ Competitive Salary + Performance Pay
✔ Oversee 3 Cemeteries with established teams and systems
✔ Be part of a mission-driven business that supports families in their most personal decisions
✔ Real autonomy, visible impact, and meaningful leadership

Not Just a Job — A Career with Legacy

If you’re not a closer, not hands-on, or not confident managing both sales and operations — this isn’t the role for you.

But if you’re ready to lead, grow, and make a difference, we want to hear from you.

Apply now with your résumé and a short cover letter showing your experience and results in similar roles.
