You do not necessarily need an Art background but a desire to sell a prestigious luxury retail product is essential (product training will be provided). A strong appreciation of art is obviously preferred.
The role is about generating sales but is definitely not a hard sell - you will work towards realistic sales targets and generate new business through a self-motivated approach.
You will provide exceptional client & customer service - being fantastic with clients is their strength, giving them an amazing client experience from start to finish. You will consultatively manage their needs and be able to transfer your passion for sales & the product, in order to generate sales. You will be driven to work towards monthly targets with the potential to earn good commission.
As the Art Sales Consultant, as well as reacting to the clients who enter the gallery, you will also proactively make daily calls to promote the gallery - this outreach is key to help increase the footfall & generate more sales. Luxury retail can generate lower footfall so the gallery pride themselves on account managing clients over the phone & email, making daily client list calls & generating prospective business through a self-starting approach.
Weekends are the busiest time of the week so you must be definitely flexible to work a lot of them, although it’s a 5 day week.
The ability to drive is preferable (but not essential) as they also do home consultations as an extra service to clients.
The advertised salary is a combination of basic salary & commission potential on top so overall realistic earnings - if you are shortlisted, please do not hesitate to ask for further details & explanation.
We have extensive experience of recruiting for this luxury retail client so look no further.
