• Fair for the buyer
  - Creates complete price transparency and access to unrivalled information
• Fair for the seller
  - Offers the quickest route to sale in the market with industry-leading fees
• Fair for the artist
  - Establishes the first equitable international framework for compensation

We are rebalancing the scales and bringing the market to a new generation of consumers.

With more than 35,000 collector sign-ups, we are now focused on building deeper, long-term relationships with our collector base through a more personalised, advisory-led sales experience.

We are hiring a highly-motivated Senior Art Sales Advisor based in London, UK.
