Administrative Assistant & Receptionist Job at Catholic Funeral & Cemetery Services, Milwaukee, WI

  • Catholic Funeral & Cemetery Services
  • Milwaukee, WI

Job Description

Archdiocese of Milwaukee Catholic Cemeteries
Location: Mt Olivet Cemetery

3801 West Morgan Avenue Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53221

Do you want to be a calming presence for someone on one of the hardest days of their life?
Tired of office work that just moves paper — and want your organization and people skills to actually matter to someone?
Looking for a workplace with values you don't have to leave at the door?

In this job…

  • You will be the face and voice of Mt. Olivet Cemetery — often the very first person a family meets  and the first sign to them that they've been received, not processed. A good first impression isn't just professionalism here - it's the beginning of genuine accompaniment.
  • You will keep the office running as the steady center — coordinating office duties, calls, and details so that all team members are free to be fully present with families. This operations excellence creates the space for ministry to happen.
  • You will build real knowledge of cemetery operations — not just to answer questions, but guide families with confidence through the Order of Christian Funerals and the choices in front of them, at a moment when they may not know what to ask.

Compensation and Benefits...
  • Starting wage of $20 per hour
  • Full benefits package including insurance options
  • Retirement benefits
  • Paid time off
