Job Description

🚨 Licensed Location Manager / Funeral Directors-Embalmers Needed  🚨

I’m partnered with a firm in the North Central, Illinois area that is looking to bring on a strong Location Manager to directly oversee one of their funeral homes. While the location is currently overseen by a nearby Gm, they are looking for someone to be the direct leader and day-to-day presence within the home itself.

This location currently has two Funeral Directors on staff. One is nearing retirement and the other is still developing professionally, so they are really looking for someone experienced, stable, and capable of helping mentor and strengthen the team moving forward.

A few details on the opportunity:

• Location Manager role overseeing daily operations of the funeral home
• Approximately 220 calls annually
• Leadership-focused position with team development responsibilities
• Looking for someone solid operationally who can help guide and mentor staff
• Compensation range roughly $75K–$85K depending on experience
• Smaller farming/community atmosphere with strong local relationships

This could be a very good fit for someone looking for a stable leadership opportunity with room to make a real impact inside the operation and community.

If this sounds like something you’d be open to discussing — or if you know someone who may be a fit — I’d appreciate the opportunity to connect. As always, everything remains completely confidential.
