About the Role

The Company is seeking an Executive Director to lead its historic and non-sectarian cemetery, which is also an accredited Level II arboretum. The successful candidate will be the primary public-facing leader, responsible for guiding families through all aspects of cemetery services with empathy and professionalism. This role involves long-term planning and development of the cemetery grounds, managing a significant budget, and overseeing a team to ensure the organization's fiscal health and operational efficiency. The Executive Director will also work closely with the Board of Trustees to lead strategic conversations for the organization's growth and will be the main point of contact for the community, including local government and law enforcement. Applicants for the Executive Director position at the company's cemetery should have a background in senior management, with a preference for experience in the death care industry, hospice, health, or elder care settings. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record of supporting families during times of grief, overseeing complex budgets, and managing a team, including unionized employees. Strong leadership, strategic planning, and communication skills are essential, as is a vision for engaging the public in the history and preservation of the cemetery. The role requires an individual with emotional intelligence, a winning personality, and the ability to foster strong relationships with various stakeholders. The company is an equal-opportunity employer and encourages individuals who meet many of the criteria to apply.
