About The Position

Since its founding in 1906, Forest Lawn has been an integral part of the community it serves. Our Founder, Dr. Hubert Eaton, profoundly changed the funeral business by transforming Forest Lawn Memorial-Park into a place for the living. By combining the mortuary and cemetery sides of the business, Eaton achieved his goal, making Forest Lawn a beautiful setting for services, weddings, baptisms, and family excursions. After 100 years of service, the Forest Lawn Memorial-Parks remain a place for the living and a true community resource. With our world-famous prestige and reputation, Forest Lawn attracts an unusually diverse set of sales professionals who want to work here. They come from real estate and retail, from insurance and finance, and from a wide variety of cultures and language backgrounds. But they all have certain things in common. They’re intelligent, ambitious, professional, caring — in a word, amazing. Forest Lawn’s Planning Advisors (Outside Sales Representatives) help families make important decisions ahead of time rather than having to make them when a death occurs. Members of our sales team benefit from the excellent name recognition and sterling reputation of Forest Lawn Memorial-Parks & Mortuaries. In addition, Forest Lawn provides extensive training to our Planning Advisors, so they can share the many benefits of preplanning to families throughout Southern California, all while earning a great income. Why Pre-plan? Families will greatly benefit from pre-planning for these very important services. With over 100 decisions to make at time of loss, the vast majority of families are unprepared and overwhelmed by all of the decisions that have to be made after a loved one passes away. For someone who loves working with people, wants to make a difference in the lives of others, and enjoys the sales process, being a Forest Lawn Planning Advisor could be the perfect career choice.
