Central Europe's largest auction house with 300+ years of art market expertise
Dorotheum operates the leading auction platform in Central Europe, running ~600 auctions annually across 40+ categories with 100+ in-house experts. The tech stack is enterprise-focused (Dynamics 365, SQL Server, Oracle, .NET/C#) but heavily weighted toward creative production (Adobe suite, Photoshop, InDesign, After Effects), reflecting the operational reality: cataloging, imaging, and presenting high-value art and collectibles. Current hiring accelerates sales and operations roles while modernizing the ERP system and launching a website redesign—signaling a shift toward digital auction channels alongside traditional floor operations.
Dorotheum is a public auction house headquartered in Vienna, Austria, operating continuously since 1707. The business spans fine art, jewelry, watches, vehicles, and antiquities, with international offices in Brussels, Düsseldorf, Munich, London, Rome, and Milan. Beyond live auctions, Dorotheum operates a jewelry division (watches and jewelry), a physical gallery (Vienna's largest antiques retail space), and a lending division backed by collateral. The organization actively expands regional networks, opens new locations, and renovates existing gallery spaces to support both institutional and private sales across multiple asset classes.
