Sourcing and negotiating the sale of high-end vehicles for private collectors and investment portfolios.
Overview
The profession functions at the intersection of high-end sales, automotive history, and financial investment. Daily activities center on monitoring global auction trends, verifying vehicle provenance, and conducting physical inspections of inventory across various geographic locations. The rhythm of the work is dictated by the release of new models and the schedule of major international concours events, requiring a constant state of readiness to act on emerging market opportunities.
