Over eight months, you’ll gain valuable skills in communications or gallery administration which can support a future career in arts, while building meaningful relationships with the team at White Cube’s London galleries.We particularly welcome applications from people who haven’t yet had opportunities to work in the art world.

This will include assisting with guest list management and helping the team in the delivery of events for exhibition openings. Pathway 2 - Sales, gallery operations and exhibitionsThis pathway offers a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience across three essential areas of White Cube’s day-to-day activities:&nbsp;primary and secondary sales,&nbsp;registrars and gallery operations, and exhibitions. From supporting VIP clients during Frieze Week to assisting with exhibition planning and artist research, you’ll develop a comprehensive understanding of how a major commercial gallery operates.Over the course of the internship, you will:<ul><li>Collaborate with the&nbsp;sales team to assist with client research, help prepare artwork offer packs and PDFs, manage sales data, and learn how relationships with collectors are nurtured.</li><li>Support the&nbsp;secondary market department by conducting object and market research, compiling exhibition histories, tracking auction results, and contributing to sales presentations.</li><li>Join the&nbsp;exhibitions team in the logistical and creative process of producing shows, from budgeting and installation scheduling to preparing artist dossiers and participating in exhibition kick-off meetings.</li><li>Understand more about the operational side of the gallery and work with the registrars, supporting them with client service, shipping and logistical administration.&nbsp;</li></ul>You will also receive training in programmes like SketchUp, gain exposure to art fairs such as&nbsp;Frieze London, and contribute to a vibrant programme of monthly exhibition research designed to broaden your awareness of the contemporary art landscape.
