About Us

At Funeral Partners, we offer a sensitive, professional service to the families in our care, and we are leading the way in setting new standards of excellence within the profession.

The Opportunity

Dawe Brothers Funeral Directors are currently looking for a casual Funeral Service Operative for our Hereford branch. The hours are varied, and there is the opportunity to fit the role in around your other commitments.

Calm and professional, our Funeral Operatives play a vital role in our service and are often the first members of the team to meet our families. A good Funeral Service Operative will be able to provide reassurance to families that we will take good care of their loved ones whilst we prepare them for their final journey.

In addition to bringing people’s loved ones into our care, Funeral Service Operatives play an active role behind the scenes, working in the mortuary, fitting coffins, and dressing the deceased; as well as participating in funeral services, pallbearing, and helping to ensure everything goes smoothly.

Being a Funeral Service Operative can be challenging and rewarding, and no two days are quite the same.

Your duties will include driving company vehicles, so you’ll need a full driving licence.

You’ll also have a place on the out of hours, and on-call rota, which will provide an opportunity to earn additional payments.
