More Vacation Time
Most people can only dream of a 4-6 week vacation but in this world, it is a reality. At the end of an assignment, Associate and Principal Auctioneers are usually allowed 4 - 6 weeks of vacation time. With such extensive time off, dream vacations that involve casually discovering the world are realistically possible.
Bring A Guest Onboard
Cruise lines will often give friends and family of crew members discounted travel rates. You can inquire about this once onboard, each cruise line has different procedures regarding guest travel requests.
Lifelong Relationships
Making friends and networking all over the world is one of the many unique benefits that separate this career path from others. You will have the opportunity to establish priceless relationships across the globe that last a lifetime. You'll be working in an energetic, diverse, and dynamic environment with international colleagues and clientele from all over the world. As the cruise ship is a floating city, most auctioneers make countless friends and enjoy a real sense of community among the fun-loving people that work around them.
International Travel
There are very few career paths that may provide you with the opportunity to dive the Great Barrier Reef, visit the Colosseum in Rome, or swim with Stingrays in Grand Cayman. As Park West conducts auctions on cruise ships worldwide, and our cruise partners sail worldwide itineraries, the travel possibilities are endless. While managing the onboard gallery and auctions are a priority, there is certainly also opportunity to see the many exotic ports of call. From the Caribbean to Europe to Asia to Australia, Park West brings art to collectors all over the world.
