Job description

Vertin is hiring a full-time Traveling Licensed Funeral Director based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The role provides relief coverage throughout Vertin's funeral-home network, arranges and conducts funeral and memorial ceremonies, and handles transfers and preparation work. A traveling licensed funeral director needs at least two years of experience in the profession and the credentials required for Minnesota licensure.

The position combines direct family service with travel between funeral homes in Vertin's network. The role requires a degree from an accredited mortuary science program plus applicable college credits, along with relevant licenses and certifications. Vertin pays for the Minnesota Funeral Directors License for a qualified hire. The position calls for careful independent work during assignments at different locations.

Role: Traveling Licensed Funeral Director

Employer: Vertin

Location: Minneapolis, Minnesota

Employment type: Full-Time

Ceremonies And Relief Coverage

The traveling director arranges and conducts funeral and memorial ceremonies across Vertin's funeral-home network. Relief coverage sends the director to locations that need licensed service support, with assignments extending beyond one facility.

The director removes and transfers deceased individuals and performs embalming work, cosmetology, hairstyling, dressing, and casketing. Each assignment requires compliance with professional, state, and federal funeral-service licensing regulations.

Mortuary Science And Minnesota Licensing

The role requires a bachelor's degree or equivalent 120 credits. The qualifications also call for a degree from an accredited mortuary science program plus applicable additional college credits.

At least two years of experience as a licensed funeral director is required. Vertin pays for the Minnesota Funeral Directors License, while relevant licenses and certifications support the assigned work.

• Communication: Strong communication skills are required for ceremony direction and family service.
• Attention to detail: The role requires careful work across changing assignments.
• Independent work: The director must be able to follow instructions and work independently.
• Work authorization: Eligibility to work in the United States is required.

Vertin's Funeral Home Network

Vertin is a privately held organization headquartered in Minnesota. Vertin's locations are funeral homes across eight states, with more than 90 locations in the network.

The Minneapolis base connects the role to relief coverage throughout that network rather than a single named facility. Licensed professionals work across funeral service careers that combine family care, ceremony direction, preparation work, and regulatory compliance.

Funeral directors use salary insights, job descriptions, interview questions, and job alerts from NFDA career resources when planning their professional development.

Insurance, Leave, And Retirement

• The position includes medical, dental, and vision coverage.
• Retirement options include a 401(k) and IRA.
• Insurance coverage includes basic, voluntary, and accidental death and dismemberment life insurance.
• Paid time off includes vacation, sick leave, and public holidays.
• The package also includes maternity and paternity leave, short-term and long-term disability coverage, training and development, and wellness resources.

Minneapolis Travel Assignment

The role is based in Minneapolis while relief work reaches Vertin locations across the network. The appointment therefore combines a Minnesota base with travel between funeral homes. The traveling funeral service position in the network requires licensed preparation and ceremony work at each assigned location. A Minneapolis funeral role also carries the practical need to maintain current credentials while moving between assignments. The role also requires strong attention to detail, the ability to follow instructions, and independent work. These qualifications apply to a position that moves between locations while maintaining professional and regulatory standards. Eligibility to work in the United States is required for the appointment. Minnesota licensure, a mortuary science background, and willingness to travel through an eight-state network define the professional profile.
