Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend The Co-op to a friend?

Why?

Whilst the role is so rewarding and such an incredible job, the company takes away from that. We understand that the funeral industry is business orientated but it feels as though the Co-op is just focusing on the business side, rather than on the client and deceased.
