Local Company Appointed West Coast Recruitment Division for Art Auctioneers at Sea

Published 27 November 2007

With the unemployment rate rising, Fine Art Management Corporation has been chosen to recruit for an expanding niche job — cruise ship Art Auctioneer. This is the first time that a West Coast office has opened to meet the growing demands of new ships and an expanding business.

 

Plymouth Auctioneering Services, Ltd. has commissioned Fine Art Management Corporation to take on the task of recruiting in California, Arizona, Washington, Oregon, and Nevada for cruise ship Art Auctioneers.

 

“We are looking for candidates who have dynamic public speaking skills and are able to get up in front of a group of people and to sell some really wonderful art,” said Shari Hunter, Director of Recruiting. “There are only 200 people in the world who have this job so we need people who are fun and have an energetic personality.”

 

Plymouth Auctioneering supplies auctioneers for over 90 cruise ships on 8 of the 10 major cruise lines. Plymouth works with the largest art dealer in the world to sell the highest quality works of art, from sports memorabilia and graphic works to one-of-a-kind originals. They sell works to meet all price ranges and demographics.

 

“It’s exciting now more than ever because we need to immediately place auctioneers on 13 newly acquired Norwegian Cruise Line ships,” said Hunter. “Art auctions onboard the ships have become a very important business; they have become part of the ‘cruise’ culture and atmosphere.”

 

Founded in 1993 by Ira Shore, Fine Art Management Corporation offers management services and business expertise in art marketing, cruise venue art auction coordination buying and management, artist representation, art brokerage, licensing services, and now recruitment for art auctioneers onboard cruise ships.
