A funeral director is a person who is in the business of funeral rites. The job typically involves the burial or cremation of the dead, together with the arrangement of the funeral ceremony.
In the UK, a funeral director is someone who directs the funeral and an undertaker normally refers to the person who does the carrying (either by vehicle or by hand) of the deceased. Nowadays the term "undertaker" is seen as old-fashioned within the "Funeral Service", but is still the most frequently used term by lay people.
Funeral directors meet with the family of the deceased to organise the service. They are also responsible for preparing the deceased for the service e.g. embalming, dressing and casketing. However, not all funeral directors are embalmers and vice versa.
In the UK many funeral directors belong to one of four professional organisations, the Society of Allied Independent Funeral Directors (SAIF), the British Institute of Funeral Directors (BIFD), the National Association of Funeral Directors (NAFD) or National Funeral Directors Association (NFDA).
