St. Albans | Full-time - Maternity Cover | OTE £60,000+ | Uncapped Commission + Management Bonus

For ambitious sales professionals, your earning potential is determined by your performance, not a capped commission or bonus scheme. At Clarendon Fine Art, we don't just sell artwork, we create exceptional experiences and help clients discover pieces they'll treasure for a lifetime. As the largest gallery group across the UK, US and at Sea, we're looking for ambitious, commercially minded leaders who enjoy developing high-performing sales teams, building exceptional client relationships and driving outstanding commercial results. This is a commercial management role, not simply a retail management position. If you're motivated by coaching others, growing a successful business and delivering exceptional client experiences, we'd love to hear from you.

You'll thrive in this role if you:

• Love driving commercial performance and exceeding ambitious targets.
• Enjoy coaching others to achieve more than they thought possible.
• Enjoy a hands-on approach to driving both performance and sales.
• Build strong client relationships whilst developing your team.
• Are proactive, resilient and commercially curious.
• Take ownership for the performance of your gallery.

We'd particularly love to hear from you if you've worked in:

• Luxury Retail
• Jewellery
• Automotive
• Property
• Recruitment
• Travel
• Hospitality
• Premium Customer Service
• Business Development
• Retail Management
• Sales Management
• Client Relationship Management
• Luxury Brands
• High-Performance Sales Teams

Before you apply: This is a career with ambitious commercial targets, significant accountability and exceptional rewards. Is this the right role for you?

Our highest-performing Gallery Managers typically:

• Create business opportunities rather than waiting for customers to walk through the door.
• Develop high-performing teams through coaching, accountability and clear expectations.
• Take ownership for both the commercial performance and culture of their gallery.
• Build long-term relationships with clients, local businesses and their communities.
• Lead from the front whilst empowering others to succeed.
• Make confident commercial decisions using data, insight and experience.
• Thrive in a fast-paced environment where every day is different.
• Enjoy building successful people as much as building successful sales.

What you'll do

You'll lead a successful gallery by developing your team, growing client relationships and driving commercial performance. You'll:

• Inspire, coach and develop a high-performing sales team.
• Drive sales performance through proactive leadership and commercial planning.
• Build relationships with collectors, prospective clients and local businesses.
• Generate new business through networking, referrals, events and client development.
• Host exhibitions, private views and exclusive client events.
• Ensure exceptional client experiences at every stage of the customer journey.
• Recruit, develop and retain exceptional talent.
• Take ownership of your gallery's commercial performance and profitability.

What you'll receive

• Industry-leading uncapped commission and performance incentives.
• Commission paid monthly and quarterly.
