This is an exciting opportunity for an individual to join a small team running a state-of-the-art Crematorium. This post is offering you the opportunity to study alongside your role as Crematorium Officer. You must have the ability and motivation to gain the required qualifications within a set time scale. If you are self-motivated and have the ability to strive for success, then this job could be for you.
As a Crematorium Officer you’ll help to ensure our bereaved customers have as positive an experience with us as is possible. You must be a good team player, flexible, adapt well to change and have significant attention to detail. This will all play a key part in the smooth running of the Crematorium, whether that’s operating and maintaining the cremators, cleaning and preparing the chapel for a funeral, operating the music for a service, ensuring the grounds are spotless, sensitively facilitating the retention and disposal of remains, or carrying out minor repairs as needed.
Ideally, you’ll have some experience working within grounds service/maintenance in the bereavement services area, with any supporting qualifications.
