You must be willing to complete all necessary training and be able to achieve the standards required. A recognised qualification in cemetery or crematorium management would be advantageous but is not essential.  Experience of working in a busy office environment and dealing with computerised records and databases is essential.  Knowledge of health and safety legislation and guidance, project management skills, dealing with complaints and enquiries, and experience of dealing with the public are also desirable.
