Who is Bare?
Bare is a venture-backed, direct-to-consumer startup disrupting the one of Australia's longest-standing institutions - the funeral industry.

We are a company dedicated to providing accessible, affordable end-of-life care to change the way that Australians deal with death. Our aim is to change the game in the funeral industry which has long provided expensive, traditional, cookie cutter services that don’t always meet the needs of the modern Australian.

By combining empathy with technology, we’re creating end-of-life experiences that are simple, personalized and affordable. In only four years, we’ve served more than 30,000 families, have become Australia’s most awarded end-of-life provider (with awards in customer service, innovation and digital disruption), and have built a team of more than 100 people committed to changing the way Australians deal with end-of-life. And we’re just getting started.

So what is the role, exactly?
Your day-to-day would involve:

Transfer of deceased persons from the place of passing to mortuary facilities. Collection locations will include hospitals, private homes, aged care facilities and other public locations

Work and communicate regularly with the health care staff, police and coronial staff to facilitate the transfers, also effectively and compassionately communicating with the family of the deceased

Manually handle the deceased, often placing them, caringly and reverently, onto transfer stretchers and then transporting them in a van to the respective destination

Safely orchestrate and manoeuvre locations that have stairs, limited access and complicated extractions (training, tools and aids are provided); manual lift of the deceased is required in a number of circumstances - the successful applicant will be fit and able to complete this lifting task with their 2nd team member

Understand that their role can involve confronting scenes and circumstances

Work in an on-call capacity, completing their tasks within agreed response timeframes
