Sales Manager - Luxury Fine Art
Sales Manager | Luxury Fine Art
Leeds | Full-time | 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.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
