Descripción del empleo

MAYDAY Recruitment is partnering with a highly respected organisation in the funeral services industry to find a Funeral Arranger/Conductor to join their Osborne Park 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 Osborne Park, with the flexibility to occasionally assist at nearby locations when required.

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.

What you'll be doing

• Meeting with families and listening carefully to their wishes

• Helping families plan and coordinate meaningful funeral services

• Conducting funeral services with professionalism, warmth and respect

• Being a calm and reassuring presence for families throughout the process

• Working respectfully and professionally around deceased persons

We're looking for someone who...

Most importantly, you're a good people person.

You may be someone who:

• Has a natural ability to make people feel comfortable and at ease

• Is compassionate, emotionally mature and genuinely caring

• Communicates clearly and listens before responding

• Can remain calm and professional in emotionally challenging situations

• Can adapt to different families, cultures, beliefs and individual needs

• Is confident working both independently and as part of a team

• Is comfortable travelling to nearby locations from time to time when required

• Holds a current unrestricted driver's licence

Funeral industry experience is welcome, but not essential. If you have the right attitude and transferable experience, you'll be supported with structured training to learn the industry.

Why you'll love it

• Meaningful work where you can genuinely make a difference

• Full training and ongoing support – you don't need to know the funeral industry

• A stable opportunity within an essential services industry

• A supportive and respectful local team

• A career where your people skills and life experience really matter

Could this be you?

Perhaps you come from aged care or community services and are naturally compassionate.

Perhaps you've worked in events and are exceptional at coordinating details while staying calm when things change.

Or perhaps you're simply looking for work that feels more meaningful.

If you're a people-focused person who would find it a privilege to support grieving families and wants to do work that genuinely matters, we'd love to hear from you.
