About the role

We are looking for a passionate expert to manage auctions for Comic Books, Art & Merchandises. The ideal candidate should possess excellent commercial skills, have a strong network within the Comics industry, be autonomous, and a quick thinker who is passionate about the field. This role can be based across a number of our markets, such as Belgium, France, Italy or the Netherlands. 

What you’ll do

As an expert, you will be closely involved with evaluating and arranging lots submitted by our users. Using your expert knowledge and extensive network, you will be responsible for creating attractive lot listings 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, and 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. We also expect you to keep your own auction interesting by working with our sales department, thereby drawing in new sellers and diversifying the selection of lots offered at your auction. Finally, you’ll also be working together with our marketing department to generate an increase of potential bidder attention at your auction.
