FDL Appoints Market Center Manager, Earns Great Place to Work Certification

October 26, 2021

Funeral Directors Life has appointed Steve Vermilya as market center manager for the state of Georgia. Vermilya has more than 35 years of experience in the funeral profession as a funeral director, embalmer, preplanning agent and, most recently, as the active sales manager in Georgia, Tennessee and North Carolina for FDL. Vermilya holds a degree in sociology and psychology from the University of Northern Iowa, and he furthered his funeral service education at Gupton-Jones College of Funeral Service.

In other news, FDL has again been certified as a “Great Place to Work,” earning recertification for July 2021-July 2022. “Great Place to Work” is the global authority on workplace culture, employee experience and leadership behaviors proven to deliver market-leading revenue and increased innovation.

To acquire recertification, FDL employees completed an anonymous survey in which they ranked the workplace culture, leadership, benefits and other factors within the company. Feedback from the survey, in addition to Great Place to Work’s extensive data-driven methodology, reported that the majority of employees said Funeral Directors Life was a great place to work.

“We are honored to be named as a ‘Great Place to Work’ again,” said Kris Seale, FDL president and CEO. “Year in and year out, we take great pride in this achievement and continue to improve the culture we’ve built. Just this past year, we’ve adopted a new mantra: ‘Love Each Other,’ a phrase made popular by Indiana University head football coach Tom Allen. Our people certainly care for one another and make Funeral Directors Life a great place to work.” funeraldirectorslife.com
