Job description

Overview

CIUFOLI is an art-jewelry house defined by Geometric Essentialism — architectural forms realised in rare, exacting materials (meteorite, mammoth ivory, forged carbon, ebony, titanium). We serve a clientele who collect, not merely purchase. London is our new stage: hotel vitrine at The Berkeley, discreet trunk-shows, and private home appointments.

Discretion is absolute. If you can host a faultless 60-minute Berkeley appointment for a sculpture-led client who avoids logos — and land a deposit — you will feel at home at CIUFOLI.

What you will lead

• High-touch appointments — hotel/suite/home/video — converting considered dialogue into paid deposits and measured closes.
• Micro-salons (6–12 guests) with clear attribution and disciplined follow-up.
• Partnerships with elite concierges, family offices, private banks, galleries and member clubs that compound into referral loops.
• Bespoke stewardship: materials, stones, proportion, finish; shepherding CAD/renders without losing the CIUFOLI line.
• Flawless hygiene: CRM that reads like a ledger; AML/KYC complete; export/VAT and insured logistics handled cleanly.

Who will thrive here

• A proven private-client seller with recent (last 24 months) transactions in the £50k–£500k+ range, delivering repeat and referral business.
• Channel-agnostic and unafraid of the quiet room: you sell as well over tea as over WhatsApp or video—no dependence on footfall.
• Design-literate, comfortable speaking to materiality and on-body form.
• Diligent with compliance, familiar with UK high-value goods, and calm with the details that matter.

Distinct advantages

Relationships across concierge ecosystems, wealth management, independent watchmaking and contemporary art; Italian/Arabic/Russian helpful; tasteful, permissioned content fluency for 1:1 selling.

What “good” looks like by 90 days

• 12–18 qualified introductions from your book; one micro-salon hosted with 3+ second meetings.
• 30–40 active opportunities with complete MEDDICC/BANT fields.
• 2–3 paid deposits and the first referral loop formalised.

Compensation (indicative)

• Commission: 5–8% on collected revenue with accelerator to 10–12% over quarterly target
• Trailing commission on repeat from self-sourced clients (12–24 months)
• Event budget and T&E with ROI review; client data stewarded under MDM
