Auctions are one of two different types — curated Antique auctions upstairs and walk-around Discovery auctions downstairs. This is a part-time W-2 role averaging 6-8 hours per week. Auction Sundays are the primary commitment. We'll have a bigger pool of trained staff than we need for each auction, and a scheduling app for everyone to sign up for shifts that work for them.
