Who We Are

Over 30 years ago, Castle Fine Art has become the UK’s market foremost publisher and retailer of original and limited-edition art.

We are still owner-managed and although we are a national retailer, we work hard to be informal and keep ‘family-feel’ to business. We work with some of the biggest names in art but know we could not be the successful business we have become without the passion, dedication and skill of our team. That is why we invest heavily in our people, offer great opportunities for further training and development as well as a valuable benefits package.

If you want to step up and oversee a team, as well as earn what your sales skills deserve, we want to hear from you.

No prior knowledge of the art world is required, as we provide full training to help you become as knowledgeable and effective as possible as a specialist Sales Manager.
