Job description

About MARI Group MARI is a global events and experiences company powering world-defining live experiences. Our portfolio of premium live properties spans sports, art, and entertainment — including the Madrid and Miami Open tennis tournaments, Frieze (a leading voice in contemporary art), and Barrett-Jackson (the premium U.S. collector car auction company). MARI also includes TodayTix Group, the global e-commerce leader for cultural experiences, connecting millions of customers with the best in live entertainment.

MARI is reshaping the live events landscape — building a growing portfolio of category-defining events and brands that set the standard for what’s next, across sports, entertainment, art, and lifestyle.

At MARI, you’ll work alongside people who are passionate, curious, and driven — people who believe that live experiences have the power to shape culture, and who care about the work, the mission, and each other. We welcome outstanding applicants of all backgrounds and encourage everyone to apply.

About the Role: Frieze is a leading platform for modern and contemporary art, comprising Frieze magazine and the international art fairs Frieze London, Frieze Masters, Frieze New York, Frieze Los Angeles and Frieze Seoul. Frieze brings together the world’s leading galleries, artists, curators and collectors, and connects global audiences with the most exciting art and ideas of our time.

As Gallery Director, Frieze House Seoul, you’ll lead the growth and day-to-day running of Frieze’s year-round space in Seoul, which hosts short-term exhibitions and projects from the world’s leading galleries and connects them with Frieze’s network of collectors, curators and art world professionals. Reporting to the Director of Frieze Seoul and supported by a Gallery Assistant, you’ll build relationships with key galleries, drive space sales and private hire in partnership with the Partnerships team, and deliver against revenue targets while keeping the quality of the programme high. You’ll also own the operation of the space end to end, from exhibition production and events to finance, administration and facilities. This is a highly visible role for someone who knows the gallery world in Asia and can run a space with both commercial and curatorial ambition.

This is a full-time role and qualified candidates must be based in Seoul, South Korea. Seoul is home to Frieze Seoul and one of the most dynamic art scenes in the world, so you’ll be right at the centre of the collectors, galleries and institutions shaping contemporary art in Asia.
