Alighieri's Auction House

We're hiring

Work at Alighieri's

We are an auction house selling fine jewelry, luxury watches, designer handbags and estate collections — photographed, researched and catalogued in-house before a single lot goes up. Every job below is part of getting that right.

  • On-site in Newnan, Georgia
  • Full-time
  • $15–30/hr, depending on the role and your experience

Videographer

Full-time · On-site in Newnan, Georgia

Shooting and editing the short-form video that puts our lots in front of people — TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts.

What you'd be doing

  • Shooting and editing short-form video for TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts
  • Organizing the photo and video library, and writing simple captions and hooks
  • Turning raw footage of jewelry, luxury goods and antiques into something people actually want to watch

Shipping & Packing

Full-time · 40 hours a week · On-site in Newnan, Georgia

Packing and shipping what we sell at auction: jewelry, designer handbags, watches, antiques and collectibles. This is hands-on work with valuable, fragile things. You do not need shipping experience — if you are reliable, careful with your hands and good at keeping track of details, we can teach you the rest.

What you'd be doing

  • Packing sold lots safely for shipment, including fragile and high-value pieces
  • Weighing, measuring, printing labels and preparing customs paperwork where it is needed
  • Managing outgoing shipments and keeping tracking information up to date
  • Receiving and checking new inventory in against the manifest
  • Keeping the packing area organized and stocked

Good fit if you are detail-oriented, careful, and comfortable being accountable for expensive items. Experience with eBay, Etsy, Poshmark, resale or warehouse shipping is a plus but not required. You should be able to lift and move boxes comfortably.

There is room to grow for someone who becomes fast and accurate and learns the auction business.

Leather & Purse Repair

Full-time · 40 hours a week · On-site in Newnan, Georgia

Cleaning, repairing and restoring designer handbags and leather goods before they go to auction. This is skilled hands-on work. Experience with leatherwork, cobbling, upholstery, shoe repair or handbag restoration is a real advantage, but we will train someone careful who wants to learn the craft.

What you'd be doing

  • Cleaning and conditioning leather, suede and exotic skins
  • Edge paint touch-up, hardware cleaning and polishing, minor stitching repairs
  • Interior cleaning, lining repair and odor treatment
  • Assessing condition honestly and documenting flaws for the listing
  • Getting each piece photo-ready and sale-ready

Good fit if you are patient, have steady hands, and take satisfaction in making something look right. You will be working on Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Hermès and similar pieces, so care matters more than speed.

There is room to grow for someone who develops real skill here.

Social Media Manager

Full-time · 40 hours a week · On-site in Newnan, Georgia

Running the social side of the auction house — planning what goes out, writing it, posting it, and talking to the people who respond. This is the strategy and voice role: we have a videographer shooting and editing, and you decide what we are saying, where and when.

What you'd be doing

  • Planning and running the content calendar across TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and YouTube
  • Writing captions and hooks that make someone stop and look at a piece
  • Scheduling posts around our auction calendar so content lands while lots are live
  • Replying to comments and DMs, and building a real community around the sales
  • Tracking what performs and changing the plan based on what you see
  • Working with the videographer on what gets filmed each week

Good fit if you use these platforms natively, write well and quickly, and are organized enough to keep a calendar full. Having grown an account — any account — matters more to us than a marketing degree.

There is room to grow for someone who moves the numbers.

Sales & Marketing

Full-time · 40 hours a week · On-site in Newnan, Georgia

Growing both sides of the auction house: the people who consign items to us, and the buyers who bid on them. Growth here comes from relationships, not cold scripts.

What you'd be doing

  • Finding and building relationships with consignors — estate liquidators, dealers, jewelers, consignment shops and private sellers
  • Following up with bidders and buyers so they come back for the next sale
  • Running email and outreach campaigns around upcoming auctions
  • Helping keep the auction calendar full of good inventory
  • Representing the auction house at local events and estate sales, and with industry contacts

Good fit if you are comfortable starting a conversation with a stranger, organized about following up, and genuinely interested in the business. Experience in sales, real estate, estate services, retail or the antiques trade is a plus but not required.

There is room to grow for someone who brings in real business.
