Are you a licensed Funeral Director in Canada who loves the profession – but not the hours, stress, or on-call life?

We are looking for someone who wants to stay in the funeral industry while helping funeral homes grow using modern tools like AI, Digital Marketing, and automation.
This is a remote, flexible role working with funeral homes across North America.
What You Will Be Doing
- Supporting funeral home clients using our CRM (FuneralClients.com)
- Answering funeral-specific questions clients have about our Digital Marketing services
- Troubleshooting issues and ensuring systems are working properly
- Assisting with onboarding new funeral home clients (high-touch in early stages)
- Joining client calls with the owner (you will not be selling, but supporting)
- Helping improve internal systems and workflows over time
This Role Is Perfect For Someone Who:
- Is a licensed Funeral Director (Canada-based)
- Has stepped away – or wants to step away – from full-time funeral home work
- Wants flexibility without losing connection to the profession
- Is curious about AI, technology, and improving systems
- Is comfortable communicating with clients on Zoom, phone and email
- Is a problem solver – not just a task completer
This Role Is NOT For Someone Who:
- Just wants “something easier”
- Avoids learning new technology
- Needs constant direction
- Is not comfortable making decisions
Compensation
- Contractor role to start
- Approx. $25 – $40 / hour depending on experience
- Flexible hours (20 – 30 hours / week to start)
- Opportunity to grow into a larger role over time
