• Understanding each client’s interests, budget and collecting objectives
• Presenting suitable artworks and providing clear information about artists, availability and pricing
• Working towards individual and gallery-wide sales targets
• Maintaining accurate and up-to-date client information within the gallery’s CRM system
• Supporting private views, exhibitions, art fairs, collector dinners and other gallery events
• Representing D’Stassi Art professionally both inside and outside the gallery
• Collaborating closely with the Head of Sales, Managing Director and wider gallery team

• A willingness to learn and follow an established sales structure
• Good organisation and consistent follow-up habits
• The ability to work effectively in a fast-paced, target-driven environment
• Availability to attend occasional evening and weekend exhibitions, launches, dinners and events

Sales Consultant

The Sales Consultant position is suitable for an ambitious candidate at the beginning of their sales career or someone looking to move into the art market.

Training and guidance will be provided, but applicants must demonstrate confidence, determination and a strong willingness to learn.

Career development

D’Stassi Art is continuing to grow, creating opportunities for high-performing team members to progress into positions including Senior Sales Consultant, Art Broker and Account Manager.

The role also provides opportunities to build relationships within the art and cultural industries through gallery exhibitions, private events, art fairs, collector dinners and artist-led programmes.
