The Gallery Administrator supports the smooth running of New Ashgate Gallery, with particular responsibility for stock administration, gallery systems and the online shop. You will maintain accurate records for artworks and makers, process incoming and outgoing stock, update prices and availability, prepare stock and sales information, and ensure records are kept accurate and up to date.

You will manage day-to-day updates to the online shop, including uploading new work, images, prices and product information, checking listings and removing or updating sold and returned work. You will help keep information consistent between the gallery's physical stock, database and website.

The role also provides practical administrative support for exhibitions. This includes preparing artwork and stock lists, labels and paperwork; coordinating information and images from artists; helping with exhibition changeovers; and supporting photography and installation on scheduled additional days during the year.

You will respond to routine artist and customer enquiries, maintain organised digital and paper records, and provide general administrative support to the Director and gallery team. As New Ashgate is a small charity, everyone contributes when needed, so the role will also include occasional front-of-house and sales support and other reasonable tasks connected with the effective running of the gallery.

This is primarily an operational and administrative role rather than a curatorial position. It would suit someone who enjoys accurate, detailed work and takes satisfaction in keeping systems, stock and information organised.
