Funeral Arranger
Willed - a startup on a mission
Willed is an exciting start up making end-of-life planning simple, affordable, and accessible for all Australians.
Having helped over 50,000 Australians write their Wills online, demand for funeral services saw us launch Willed Funerals, which is going from strength to strength her in Victoria and in other states too.
Our ethos is to provide great service and great value for money - something we do by using technology wisely but brining great interpersonal skills into every interaction.
While families approach us in their moments of grief, we can make a world of difference in the way we enage and help them. If this ethos is one you share, you are the sort of person we want as Funeral Arranger.
