Funeral Management Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Landmark Funeral Group is a trusted provider of compassionate, professional funeral and memorial services. Families rely on us during some of life's most difficult moments, and we take pride in delivering care with dignity, respect, and precision.

As part of Landmark Funeral Group, this position supports our operating partner, Walker Funeral Homes and Crematory where this role will be based and contribute day-to-day. 

Every role at Walker Funeral Homes and Crematory supports our mission of serving families with excellence. Our team members understand that the details matter — from the way we communicate with a family to the way we coordinate each step of the service process. We value compassion, professionalism, reliability, and a calm presence. 

We are seeking an experienced Funeral Director & Care Center Manager to provide hands-on leadership for our Care Center operations while continuing to serve families as a licensed funeral professional.

• Maintain high standards for embalming, preparation, presentation, and overall decedent care.
• Ensure compliance with applicable funeral service regulations, OSHA requirements, infection-control practices, PPE requirements, and company safety procedures.
• Respond quickly to quality concerns, service delays, identification issues, or other operational challenges.
• Manage supplies, staffing, transportation, and other controllable Care Center expenses responsibly.
• Use operational data and sound judgment to identify opportunities to improve efficiency, consistency, service, and cost effectiveness.
