Job description

Location: Calvary Cemetery
248 S Belle Vista Ave, Youngstown, OH 44509

Do you want to be a calming presence for someone on one of the hardest days of their life?
Tired of office work that just moves paper - and want your organization and people skills to actually matter to someone?
Looking for a workplace with values you don't have to leave at the door?

In this job...

• You will be the face and voice of Calvary Cemetery - often the very first person a family meets and the first sign to them that they've been received, not processed. A good first impression isn't just professionalism here - it's the beginning of genuine accompaniment.
• You will keep the office running as the steady center - coordinating office duties, calls, and details so that all team members are free to be fully present with families. This operations excellence creates the space for ministry to happen.
• You will build real knowledge of cemetery operations - not just to answer questions, but guide families with confidence through the Order of Christian Funerals and the choices in front of them, at a moment when they may not know what to ask.

Compensation and Benefits...

• Starting wage $18
• Flexible Hours
