If you're a licensed embalmer, funeral director, or mortuary science student ready to elevate your career — this is your shot at something bigger.

We’re working with a  rapidly growing embalming, transport, and cremation service  that supports over  200+ funeral homes, coroners, and medical institutions  across a wide regional network. They're currently expanding their team — and the opportunity is  high-paced, back-of-house focused , and built for long-term professional growth.

Why This Role Stands Out :

  • $60K - 100K compensation  (yes, some staff are already earning 6 figures)
  • ⏰   On-call about 6 nights / month  — firefighter-style schedule
  • Every other weekend is a  3- or 4-day weekend  ‍♂️
  • No travel required  — work is entirely based in one central, well-equipped facility
  • Hands-on experience with  complex, high-skill cases
  • Clean, modern facility with top-of-the-line HVAC and prep environment
  • Future  ownership / succession potential  for the right long-term fit
  • Ongoing mentorship in advanced skills like  facial reconstruction
  • Positive, growth-oriented workplace culture — mentoring matters here

Annual Volume :

  • ~1,500 cremations / year
  • ⚰️   ~1,100 embalming's / year
  • This isn't your average funeral home role — this is a  high-volume, high-skill environment  where you’ll refine your craft and work with a team that values quality, consistency, and care. ✅   Who They’re Looking For :

  • Licensed embalmers (or students / apprentices ready to grow)
  • Detail-driven, dependable, calm under pressure
  • Comfortable in a  fast-moving, back-of-house setting
  • Open to relocating to a  safe, affordable, and growing Midwest city
  • Ready to join a  mission-driven team  with long-term vision
  • If you're looking to get serious about your career — to build something that matters — this is your moment. Let’s connect.
