Senior Art Sales

Eames Fine Art is looking for an experienced Fine Art salesperson to join our team.

The job involves working alongside a great team of people in our two art galleries and a collectors’ studio in London SE1. It is essential that the candidate has experience of working in an active sales position and preferably formal sales training.

Eames Fine Art is an established, commercial art gallery based in SE1 over three venues. We specialise in original artworks by print makers from all periods in history as well as a formidable and exciting group of contemporary printmaking artists. We sell works ranging from £200 - £50,000.

Eames Fine Art is offering an exciting opportunity to be a part of a hard‑working and passionate team of people. Specialising in original prints means that we manage a high volume of artworks. We have a fast turn‑around in the galleries which means the job is busy and varied, it also means that we must be confident talking about art from a very broad range of styles and periods to different collectors.

We are looking for a talented and impressive individual who has a proven track record of sales success. A professional background in art is not essential, although confidence and experience in discussing art is important: the successful candidate should have a passion for and knowledge about fine art, and indeed an interest in the Arts in general.

This role is about generating sales and working towards realistic sales targets to generate new business through a self‑motivated approach. We are looking for someone who can build relationships with clients using our existing database and converting new enquiries from gallery walk‑ins and online enquiries.

• Minimum 4 years’ experience in sales in a fine art environment
• Pro‑active, chasing up leads and closing sales
• Comfortable working with database software
• Good communication skills and an enthusiasm to engage with clients
• Reliability, punctuality and commitment to the role
• Some knowledge or interest in the art Eames Fine Art specialises in

We pride ourselves on the Eames brand being relaxed, personable and making art works accessible to everyone. Our venues are welcoming and comfortable but to be so they must always be beautiful, smart, clean, and above all organised. A professional and friendly attitude and behaviour is always expected from everyone on the team.

Full‑time position.

Mid‑week days can be negotiable but most weekends are required, as is working at one evening event per week (on average) since this is when the galleries are their busiest.

A generous basic salary will be dependent on skills and experience but full package will also include commission on sales.
