• --This is not an 8:00 to 5:00 position. Can you be available overnight on scheduled days, or weekends?

"On-call" position means during certain times you agree to be available (and not under the influence of any kind) to do transports. Individuals may get one or five calls a day or may go several days without any. Your on-call schedule and availability are created based on requested days supplied by you for which Roupp Funeral Home will accommodate. On occasion due to demand, we may need to call someone that is not on call for that day/night. If that person is not available, they were not required to be, and are not held accountable for being unavailable when off call. We just extend the option for extra hours when help is needed.

·        --What hours of the days, nights or weekends (taking in consideration another job, home responsibilities etc...) are you able to work funerals and be on call?

To apply, please complete the form above. Be sure to upload your cover letter, resume, references, and letter of recommendation.
