ABOUT AVANT ARTE Avant Arte is a curated marketplace that makes discovering and collecting art radically more accessible for a new generation. Our team of passionate experts collaborate with leading contemporary artists from across the globe to create bespoke limited-edition artworks to browse and collect. We began as a cult blog of contemporary artists and since 2015 we've grown our community to over 3.3 million strong across more than 100 countries. We're proud to collaborate with leading contemporary artists to create limited edition works - from sculpture editions and works on paper to NFTs and hand-finished silkscreen prints.
OUR CULTURE We're a small team with really big ambitions, both for what we want to achieve and also the environment we're building. We want to create a company that remains thoughtful as we scale and tries to be genuinely progressive in how we operate. We want people to really own what they do and be given the autonomy and freedom to make mistakes, learn, and create something meaningful.
We all work incredibly hard because we really care about what Avant Arte is here to do – we're looking for exceptional people who are proactive, hungry to learn, and want to put their pride in our collective achievements.
We know that creating an inclusive environment that promotes and values diversity is critical if we want to build something with impact and meaning. We believe that having diversity in age, background, gender identity, race, sexual orientation, physical or mental ability, ethnicity, and perspective will make us an infinitely better company. In 2022, we were shortlisted for Women in Tech's Best Employer - Small Company and Best Benefits.
WHAT WE NEED We're looking for a CRM Executive to support the day to day running of Avant Arte's CRM and email marketing. This role is integral to Avant Arte's marketing strategy, and is unique in blending systematic CRM processes with creative strategies tailored to specific artist campaigns.

Over the past few years, Avant Arte has built up a sophisticated CRM and email marketing function that sits at the heart of our programme of editions. A tailored email marketing strategy underpins every one of our releases, guiding collectors along the journey from initial interest to the moment of launch, and through to post-purchase. With one of the largest, most data-enriched CRMs of art enthusiasts around, email allows us to deliver tailored communications that connects collectors with artwork they love, and introduces them to artists they are yet to discover.

Excellent communication and collaboration skills, effective at working with cross-functional teams.
Good writing skills, with the ability to craft engaging and persuasive copy for email campaigns.
Analytical skills and commercial acumen, open to testing new ideas and validating them with data.
