General Manager – Cemetery & Funeral Operations

Lead the People. Own the Business. Make an Impact.

We are looking for a proven leader to take ownership of a funeral and cemetery operation and lead it like a business.

As General Manager, you are the CEO of your location. You will be responsible for the people, culture, sales, operations, financial performance, facilities, and overall family experience.

This is not a role for someone who simply wants to maintain the operation. We want a leader who will build a strong team, grow the business, create accountability, and continuously look for ways to improve.

What You'll Own

  • Lead, coach, develop, and retain a high-performing team
  • Develop managers and supervisors into stronger leaders
  • Own the location's P&L, budget, revenue, expenses, and profitability
  • Develop and execute the annual business plan
  • Partner with sales leadership to drive profitable growth
  • Establish clear goals, expectations, and accountability
  • Oversee day-to-day funeral and cemetery operations
  • Ensure an exceptional experience for every family we serve
  • Maintain high standards for buildings, cemetery grounds, equipment, and facilities
  • Ensure compliance with company policies and applicable regulations
  • Identify opportunities to improve the business, operation, and customer experience

This is not a behind-the-desk leadership position. We want a General Manager who knows their people, understands the numbers, walks the property, develops leaders, and is present where the work is happening.

What We're Looking For

We are looking for a business leader first. Funeral and cemetery experience is valuable, but it is not required.

  • 4 years of leadership and people-management experience
  • Experience managing budgets, expenses, and business performance
  • Strong financial and business acumen
  • Proven ability to build teams and develop people
  • Strong communication, decision-making, and problem-solving skills
  • P&L or multi-department leadership experience preferred
  • Bachelor's degree in business or related field preferred
  • Funeral Director license is a plus
  • Funeral, cemetery, hospitality, healthcare, senior living, retail, or other service-industry leadership experience is a plus

The Opportunity

This is more than managing a location. You are being trusted to lead a business.

You will have the opportunity to shape the culture, develop people, grow revenue, improve profitability, and make decisions that directly impact the success of your location.

If you are a leader who takes ownership, develops people, knows the numbers, and wants the responsibility of running a business, we want to talk to you.
