What You’ll Do
As a Natural History Expert at Catawiki, with a specialty in taxidermy, you will play a pivotal role in evaluating and arranging the lots submitted by our users. Using your in-depth knowledge and broad network within the Natural History field, you will be responsible for curating and creating compelling lot listings weekly, making them highly appealing to our vast audience of collectors.
Catawiki aims to uphold a high standard of transparency and fairness in user transactions, and your expertise is critical in achieving this. With a keen eye for detail, you will review lot titles, descriptions, and images, providing users with reliable estimated values and professional advice. If an item doesn’t meet our standards, you’ll communicate this professionally and courteously.
We’re looking for a well-rounded Natural History generalist with a passion for Taxidermy in particular based in the Netherlands, France, or Spain who can work effectively under pressure. You will represent Catawiki’s commercial interests, strategically contributing to growing our platform while building relationships with sellers and buyers. Your role will require remote collaboration within our team, demanding strong communication and stakeholder management skills to keep all parties aligned and informed.
What You’ll Bring
Where You’ll Be
As an integral part of our Natural History & Collectibles department, you’ll preferably be based in the Netherlands, France, or Spain, with a flexible work-from-home arrangement that allows you to connect with a global team.
Please note that benefits can vary by location. For specific information regarding what’s available in your country, please consult your recruiter.
Our vibrant offices in Amsterdam, Paris and Lisbon are designed to inspire and connect. Most Catawikians are within commuting distance of one of our offices and enjoy the flexibility of a hybrid work model. This means we typically ask you to be in the office 2 out of 5 days, roughly 40% of your working time, to collaborate and connect with your colleagues. Of course, if the job description specifies that the role is 100% remote—such as for certain expert or sales positions—then that arrangement will apply.
Apply directly with an English CV and cover letter by submitting your information at the bottom of this page. By submitting your application you agree to Catawiki’s Applicant Privacy Policy.
If you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with every qualification in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyway. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.
