• Act as frequent point of contact for artists, ensuring clear and efficient communication
• Support private views, art fairs, exhibitions, and events with client-facing participation
• Oversee sales management and operations alongside the director
• Manage gallery inventory on Artlogic and produce up-to-date location reports when required

Required Skills & Experience

• Minimum 2 years’ experience in a commercial gallery
• Background in a registrar, gallery assistant, or gallery manager role
• Excellent working knowledge of Artlogic across contacts, inventory, presentations, and document generation
• Strong logistical and organisational skills; able to anticipate, flag, and resolve operational issues quickly
• Clear communicator, confident managing multiple stakeholders
• Calm under pressure, with a solutions-driven mindset
• Proficient in Microsoft Office Suite and Google Workspace
• Ability to work flexible, extended hours during busy periods
