  • make sure all regulated work, including funeral planning appointments, is referred to a ‘certified colleague’
  • build and maintain relationships with the team, clients and the community
This role would suit people who have
  • a commercial mind-set and experience in a managerial role
  • a true customer focus and a real passion for delivering a great service
  • the ability to capture intricate detail and make sure it is reflected in the service we deliver
  • compassion, understanding and empathy, and the ability to keep a cool head under pressure
