About Catawiki Interiors

Catawiki Interiors is one of Catawiki’s four core business units, alongside Luxury, Collectibles, and Art. We are a passionate team of 45+ professionals working every day to bring the excitement of auctions to interior lovers and collectors across Europe—whether it’s a Tiffany lamp or an iconic Eames chair.

The Interiors business unit is built around three core categories: Design & Vintage, Home Decor, and Classic Interiors. 

About the Team

The Interiors Sales Team at Catawiki is a fast-paced, impact-driven group of commercial talents powering the success of some of Europe’s most passionate sellers. We operate with a strong sense of ownership— each Account Manager drives their own category-focused portfolio across Europe, whether it’s Design & Vintage, Home Decor or Classic Interiors, with the mindset of running “a business within the business”.

To fuel this growth, each Account Manager partners closely with a Key Business Developer, forming a powerful duo that combines strategic seller acquisition with long-term account success.

We take full responsibility for our seller performance, shaping strategies, spotting growth opportunities, and executing with precision. Market knowledge, sales acumen, and creative thinking are our tools.

Collaboration is core to our culture—we share, challenge, and celebrate as one team.

Our mission: make Catawiki the leading destination for passionate buyers and sellers of exceptional interior pieces.
