What are the responsibilities and job description for the Client Advisor - Art Gallery position at Carousel Fine Art?
Are you a natural connector with an eye for art and the ability to make people feel understood and inspired?
About Us
Carousel Fine Art is a contemporary art gallery with a national presence, known for blending art, lifestyle, and culture in dynamic, design-forward spaces. With established galleries in Miami, Palm Beach, Chicago, and Atlanta.
Our galleries are relationship-driven environments. We believe art is personal, collecting is conversational, and the most successful advisors are trusted guides with strong taste, curiosity, and people skills.
The Role
We are seeking an Art Advisor to serve as a face of our Buckhead heartbeat. This role is ideal for someone who thrives on connection—someone who listens deeply, builds trust naturally, and brings a fresh, culturally fluent perspective to the gallery floor.
You will not be curating exhibitions. Instead, your focus is community-building, client relationships, and collaborating closely with our broader gallery team. You’ll balance presence and polish with organization and follow-through, helping collectors feel confident, inspired, and excited to engage with contemporary art.
What You’ll Do
- Build authentic, long-term relationships with collectors, designers, and art-curious clients
- Act as a trusted advisor—listening first, guiding thoughtfully, and matching clients with the right works
- Create a welcoming, energetic gallery atmosphere that encourages conversation and return visits
- Represent the gallery at local events and actively participate in the Buckhead creative community
- Collaborate closely with internal teams on sales strategy, artist knowledge, and client outreach
- Maintain strong follow-up, CRM organization, and client communication
- Support gallery operations, inventory awareness, and sales reporting with precision
- Continuously learn the gallery’s artists, materials, and narratives to communicate them confidently
- Contribute ideas and energy while remaining a supportive, reliable team player
Who You Are
- Naturally social, observant, and emotionally intelligent—you read rooms well
- An excellent listener and communicator who enjoys connecting people to ideas
- Proactive, dependable, and highly organized behind the scenes
- Style-aware and culturally curious, with a strong interest in art, design, fashion, or architecture
- Comfortable in a sales-driven environment without being pushy or transactional
- Energetic, polished, and present—both mentally and physically
- Open-minded, coachable, and excited to grow within a collaborative team
Qualifications
- Background in art, design, luxury retail, hospitality, or a client-facing advisory role
- Strong interpersonal and communication skills
- Passion for contemporary art and design
- Ability to manage relationships, follow-through, and details with consistency
- Proficient computer and application skills — Google Drive, Photoshop, Canva, Monday.com, and apps like Smartist are used on a daily basis.
To Apply, Please Submit:
- Your resume
- A brief paragraph telling us why you’d love to join the team
- Any relevant experience that reflects your taste, people skills, or sales success
Carousel Fine Art is an equal opportunity employer and welcomes candidates of all backgrounds.
