* Support warehouse operations including artwork intake, inventory management, and storage
* Travel domestically and occasionally internationally for installations and exhibition setups

* Proven installation experience — this is essential for this role
* Strong working knowledge of best practices in art packing, handling, and installation
* High attention to detail with excellent problem-solving ability
* Professional communication skills and the confidence to liaise with high-profile clients
* Flexibility with working hours and willingness to travel
