The duskwalker versatile heritage should get you most of what you need for undead hunting, providing both offensive and defensive options. You want to have a good charisma score so you can maximize Divine Font. I'd also have a couple of different weapons so you can exploit vulnerabilities etc.
Searing light seems like a preferred spell to prepare. Sure, single target, but even if you prepare it as a side option with a lower slot, the damage is very good vs. undead and fiends. it is nice when you pick out one undead you need eliminate as soon as possible (likely due to some nasty special ability).
Pharasma would be a thematically appropriate deity, and the death domain gets you Death's Call and Eradicate Undeath focus spells. Cleric feats seem fairly obvious such as Cremate Undead and Fast Channel. The Knights of Lastwall Archetypes could be worth a look.
Sarenrae could also be good if you are a pure caster, and you are killing "a lot" a lot of undead.
She gives good AoE spells if your GM is in the mood of 'zombie apocalypse' mode with tons of low level of undead. And there is a pleasure in reducing countless hordes of vile creatures to ashes.

An interesting twist might be to take the Medic dedication so that you can save your Heals for undead destruction.
Yes! To that end, Secular Medic and Field Medic Backgrounds give Battle Medicine as Skill Feats.
Secular Medic? On a cleric?

Makes for a great background story IMO. A Rahadoumi healer who only survived an encounter with undead because a Cleric intervened and could harm undead while at the same time healing the living. That can be quite the eye-opener about the glaring weakness of purely mortal healing.
