Ali McVie - Funeral Arranger

Ali McVie - Funeral Arranger

I started working with the Scotmid Funeral team in February 2022, as a Roving Funeral Arranger, which meant providing cover for any of our 16 offices across Edinburgh and the Central Belt. I take great pride in my job, and love being able to help families through a very difficult time. I now have a permanent base in the Clermiston office to call home.

I previously worked for 14 years with the Scottish Ambulance service in various roles, but achieved Technician status in 2011. I think this role has helped me transfer my skills in the funeral business as I am very much a “people person”.

I have always lived in Edinburgh and have been married to the better half now for 25 years. My hobbies include amdram where I have met some fabulous friends, and I am also a member of a darts team which is a great Monday night (when the team wins of course).
