REASONS TO CONSIDER
AN UP-AND-COMING
CAREER IN 2025
Family Features
If you’re thinking about making
a career change, re-evaluating
your long-term career path or
looking for a career with purpose,
there is one path you may not have
considered - and it might be the
perfect fi t: funeral service.
Consider this: Funeral service is
facing a critical shortage of skilled
professionals in the next decade due to retiring funeral
home owners and rising death rates. In fact, the National
Funeral Directors Association (NFDA) estimates 5,700
openings for funeral service workers during each of the
next 10 years.
Th ere are several reasons to consider funeral service as a
career, whether you’re a new grad, a young professional
looking to get your foot in the door or someone with years
of experience who’d like to test your transferable skills in
a new career.
1. Fulfi llment and Purpose
Funerals and memorial services are an important part of
the grieving process and an opportunity for family and
friends to gather to comfort one another and say goodbye
to their loved one.
Funeral directors are not just in charge of logistics. Th ey
play a vital role in helping families navigate one of the most
challenging times in their lives. Th ey provide emotional
support, guide families through funeral arrangements and
ensure the service honors the deceased’s life.
2. Community Involvement
Funeral directors are often deeply involved in the
communities they serve, volunteering with local nonprofi t
and community organizations, sponsoring little league
teams and organizing collections for troops overseas.
Th is sense of community extends beyond the immediate
responsibilities of the job, as many funeral directors take
on the role of mentors and leaders, guiding the next
generation of professionals.
3. Ability to Own a Business
A career in funeral service off ers the opportunity to own
your own funeral home. With experience and business
skills, you can manage and grow a company that provides
essential services to your community. It’s a unique blend of
compassion and entrepreneurship, allowing you to make a
meaningful impact while running a successful business.
If you’re looking for a meaningful career that combines
purpose, community and the opportunity for growth, funeral
service might be the path for you. With the occupation’s
demand for skilled professionals on the rise, now is the time
to consider how you can make a diff erence in the lives of
others while shaping the future of a growing profession.
