Your work here matters

As a family business, we value our community. As a local business, our staff are naturally part of the community already, which makes it even easier for each member to empathise and care for the people we support.

A diverse group with a wide mixture of backgrounds, ages and skills, we share the common goal of delivering the very best funeral and memorial services in a caring and professional way.

Helping bereaved families through the most difficult time of their lives is a role that needs to be handled sensitively, but it’s also incredibly rewarding and fulfilling to know you’ve had a positive impact and helped someone navigate a tough situation.

What our employees say

We consider all our team members to be part of the AB Walker family, and their happiness is important to us – but don’t take our word for it! See what some of our colleagues say about working here too.

“After losing my dad suddenly in July 2020 and my grandad later that year, I found myself arranging their funerals with no idea where to begin. However, the support I received from the team at AB Walker made an enormous difference.  When I helped guide my family through my grandad’s arrangements, I realised how much it meant to support others during such difficult times. As a result, that experience led me to become a funeral arranger, and it’s a role I’m incredibly proud of.”

“When I joined AB Walker, I found a friendly and welcoming team. New starters receive comprehensive training, and everyone supports each other to give our clients the best service. It’s a family business with the owner actively involved. Both he and the management team are down-to-earth and approachable. My role offers me a good work / home life balance, and I am looking forward to what the role brings in the future.”
