MAYDAY Recruitment is partnering with a highly respected organisation in the funeral services industry to find a Funeral Arranger/Conductor to join their Bunbury team.
This is a role for someone who genuinely enjoys helping people, creating calm in difficult situations and delivering exceptional service.
You don't necessarily need previous funeral industry experience. What matters most is your ability to connect with people, listen, stay composed under pressure and treat every family with care and respect. Full training and support will be provided.
What makes this role different?
This is more than a customer service role. You'll be there for people during some of the most significant moments of their lives, helping families feel supported and ensuring their loved one's farewell is handled with dignity.
You'll build meaningful relationships with families, work alongside a supportive local team and develop specialist skills that can provide a genuinely rewarding long-term career.
Importantly, you must be comfortable working with deceased persons and supporting families who are experiencing grief and loss. You'll need to approach these situations with maturity, compassion and the utmost respect.
You'll be based in Bunbury, but as this is a regional role, there will be occasions where you may need to travel up to 1–2 hours to attend a funeral service, depending on operational requirements.
You will also participate in an on-call roster, approximately one week per month, supporting transfers when required. This means you must be comfortable with the flexibility that comes with being on call and travelling when needed.
A current unrestricted driver's licence is essential,
and you must be confident and comfortable driving as part of the role.
If you've worked in hospitality, events, aged care, community services, healthcare, retail, customer service or another people-focused environment, your experience could translate incredibly well.
