• Own and grow a portfolio of strategic art sellers across Germany and the wider DACH region, with clear mid‑ and long‑term GMV and quality targets
• Identify and convert high‑value prospects through market mapping, AI‑supported data matching, outbound outreach, in‑person meetings and presence at fairs and events
• Manage pipeline and forecasting, prioritising high‑impact opportunities and reporting expected revenue and conversion
• Structure and negotiate complex commercial agreements, including single‑seller auctions and incentive models
• Collaborate closely with Art Experts to align on sourcing strategy, lot selection and seller development
• Use CRM, data and AI tools to guide commercial decisions and optimise performance

What You’ll Bring

• Fluency in German and English
• 2‑5 years of experience in Sales or Account Management with revenue targets and KPI ownership
• Proven track record of growing GMV, acquiring strategic sellers and driving outbound business development
• Strong negotiation skills and confidence closing complex commercial deals with senior stakeholders
• Strategic and autonomous working style, with strong organisation and prioritisation skills
• Data literacy and ability to translate performance metrics into concrete commercial actions
• Experience with CRM and data tools such as HubSpot, Looker Studio, Google Workspace and AI tools, based in a major German city and willing to travel across Europe

Why You’ll Enjoy This Role

• Ownership of the German/DACH market: build long‑term partnerships with galleries, art dealers and artists across Germany and neighbouring markets.
• Real commercial responsibility: you own your pipeline and structure commercial incentives for top‑tier sellers.
• Clear impact: you are responsible for KPIs that matter (GMV, sell rate, average lot value) and regularly share results with leadership.
• Market‑facing role with support: budget management for fairs, events and travel to build strong local relationships and competitive intelligence.
• Straightforward, international culture: clear responsibilities, pragmatic decision‑making and room to shape Catawiki’s Art strategy in the DACH region.
