  • Assist with transfers and transportation while following established team-based safety procedures
  • Work collaboratively across the Niles, Three Oaks and Cassopolis locations, stepping into different responsibilities as needed
  • Participate in weekly staff meetings and contribute ideas that strengthen processes, organization and the overall experience for families

Requirements
  • Active Funeral Director and Embalmer license in Michigan, Indiana, or another state eligible for reciprocity
  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent education that satisfies applicable licensing requirements
  • 1+ years of funeral home or mortuary services experience
  • Valid driver's license with a good driving record
  • Familiarity with funeral home management software such as SRS as well as Microsoft 365
  • Ability to safely assist with transferring and moving deceased individuals as part of a two-person team
  • Exceptional emotional intelligence, communication skills, and cultural awareness with the ability to remain composed and compassionate when supporting grieving families

Benefits
  • Medical plan contribution of up to $1,000 with eligibility beginning immediately
  • Flexible PTO ranging from approximately 2-3 weeks
  • Relocation reimbursement of up to $5,000 for qualified candidates
  • Potential housing options through company-owned residences that can be incorporated into the overall compensation package
  • Scheduling flexibility that can include every other weekend off, three-day weekends or alternative scheduling arrangements depending on staffing
