About the role
Sales Career — At-Need, Pre-Need Cemetery & Funeral, Cremation Society
Spring Grove Cemetery & Arboretum, a National Historic Landmark and one of the country's most respected cemetery and funeral organizations, is hiring a Family Service Advisor to join our sales team in Cincinnati, Ohio. This is a relationship-driven sales role: you'll help families plan ahead with pre-need cemetery and funeral arrangements, and support families with immediate at-need and Cremation Society needs during one of the most difficult moments of their lives.
Why This Role Meaningful work — you're helping families make lasting decisions with care and professionalism
Full sales cycle across three revenue streams: at-need, pre-need cemetery, and pre-need funeral (including Cremation Society)
Paid training: base salary for up to 180 days while you complete licensing and onboarding
Uncapped earning potential after training: draw plus commission plus bonus, with ongoing sales incentive awards
Comprehensive benefits and company-matching 401(k)
Backed by an established, trusted local brand founded in 1845
What You'll Do:
Prospect, present, and close sales for pre-need cemetery property and funeral planning
Meet with at-need families with sensitivity, professionalism, and urgency
Build and maintain long-term relationships with client families, vendors, and community partners
Manage your own pipeline [aftercare, Dynamics CRM, company-provided referrals through special events, self-generated prospecting, etc.]
Handle confidential correspondence, including compiling, editing, and re-writing letters
Deliver outstanding presentations and follow through from first conversation to close
Work scheduled Duty days, which includes weekend coverage on a rotational basis
What We're Looking For:
A relationship-driven professional who builds trust easily and follows through until a family’s plan is complete
Excellent verbal and written communication skills
Strong organizational skills and high attention to detail
Comfort working in a fast-paced, ever-changing environment
Ability to learn new computer programs and platforms quickly
Must successfully obtain an Ohio insurance license during the initial onboarding and training period as a condition of employment
High school diploma or equivalent preferred; prior sales experience a plus
Licensing All Family Service Advisors must obtain an Ohio insurance license within 30 days of employment; Spring Grove supports you through that process.
Schedule Business operates Monday through Sunday, and this role includes scheduled Duty days that includes weekend coverage on a rotational basis. Specific rotation details will be discussed during the interview process.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
