• Important Note: Positions within Funeralcare involve direct physical contact with the deceased as part of normal duties. Please carefully consider your comfort levels with these responsibilities before applying.

• A strong logistics background with experience coordinating various activity streams in a fast-paced environment.

• Confidence using both IT systems and manual methods to manage complex schedules.

• The ability to think on your feet, maintain attention to detail, and carry out lifting and manual handling when needed.

• Requirements: A valid UK driver's licence and the flexibility to travel, along with a reliable commute to the Hull & Scunthorpe area.
