We're looking for people to join the Co-op Funeralcare team as night ambulance crew.

You don't need experience to do this job, just a genuine desire to help people at the time they need it most.

To help you learn the skills you need to help support families in our care, we'll support you with training along the way.

We'll also offer you a competitive salary, an excellent pension, and discounts on a range of Co-op products and services.

As a part of a specialist night ambulance service, you'll carry out the collection and transportation of the deceased coming into our care during night hours.

This allows us to have a 24-7 operation, supporting our clients whatever time they need us. You'll be working on a regular shift pattern, with shifts starting at 8pm and ending at 8am.


What you'll do
- collect the deceased during the night from a range of locations and scenarios, in a professional, empathetic and dignified manner
- carry out support activities whilst at the funeral home, including the care and preparation of the deceased
- work closely with the wider team to make sure there's a clear hand-over for daytime colleagues
- update and maintain records, on both written and digital platforms, in line with processes and regulation
- report into the care logistics manager, carrying out any requests as instructed


This role would suit people who have
- the flexibility to work only night shifts
- a full UK manual driving licence
- the ability to act promptly but in a measured and considered way
- the ability take instructions and follow them to the letter, with a high attention to detail
- a calm approach in sometimes distressing situations and the ability to think on your feet
- no problems manually lifting and no specific health reasons to stop you doing so


Why Co-op?
As a Funeralcare colleague, you'll get a fantastic benefits package including:

• 23 days holidays (pro rata, rising with service)

- a pension with up to 10% employer contributions
- access to wellbeing support and other benefits
- discounts on Co-op products and services
- exclusive discounts and offers from a huge range of retailers
