Your dream job awaits you at Skylawn Funeral Home!  If you are exhausted of going to work at a job with no opportunity for advancement or are not being paid what you deserve, this opportunity is for you! We are changing the culture of our profession in a positive way and we want you to be a part of it. 

Why Work at Skylawn Funeral Home:

• Our beautifully constructed funeral home sits atop the Montara mountain range in the heart of Skylawn Memorial Park.  We have large spacious chapels, a reception room overlooking a waterfall and rock garden, state of the art facilities, and beautifully appointed reception rooms.  The cemetery grounds overlook the Pacific Ocean, and the San Francisco Bay.  Surrounded by a nature preserve,  Skylawn is home to an abundance of wildlife.  There is no other funeral home like Skylawn in the Bay Area.
• Our arrangers get the opportunity to work with our families from first call through the funeral service. There is no "handing off" of a family. You guide them through the complete process. 
• With a transfer company on hand, arrangers are not expected to handle transfers, either during the day or at night. This gives them more time to devote to their families. 

Why San Mateo:

• Located in the center of the San Francisco Bay Area, with easy access to urban and suburban amenities.
• Short drive to Half Moon Bay, the Pacific Ocean, and all the activities and amenities the coast has to offer.
• Day drive to the mountains and the snow. The surrounding areas offer a wide variety of nature, no matter what you're looking for.
