About the role
As an Expert on Decorative Objects (and more specifically on Figures, Figurines and Modern Religious Objects) in the Interiors team, you will be closely involved with evaluating and arranging lots submitted by our users. Collaborating with other experts and using your own knowledge of figurines (think Swarovski, Hummel, Cow Parade) and religious objects (the pope’s hat, crucifixes, icons) from all over the globe, you will be responsible for creating attractive auctions every week. Catawiki strives to keep user transactions as transparent and fair as possible, and your expertise and experience play a large part in maintaining this standard; you know better than anyone what items are of interest to our users.
You will review lot titles, descriptions, lot pictures, and provide users with an estimated value based on this information. If you need to reject a submission, you do so in a professional and courteous manner. Your efforts result in exceptional auctions that bidders will find irresistible.
Aside from evaluating lots submitted by our users and compiling auctions together with your colleagues, you are also responsible together with the sales team for developing the seller base of the lighting auctions. You will proactively review seller segments, assist team members in onboarding high potential leads and upselling existing sellers, making use of your extensive network of potential sellers, buyers, and experts.
