Nottingham, United Kingdom Byron Sacorafos Full time

**Job Targets & Description**:
1. Personal Assistance: Preparing and Selling Contents of a Household.

2. Personal Assistance: Occasional Assistance in Other Matters, if qualified or able.

The main target is to sell most of the contents of a 3-4 story property in Mapperley Park, Nottingham. These consist of Personal Collections and Effects, and Business Remnants.

The job is to complete the already started Logging, Assessing, and Valuation of the contents involved, and then to Sell these either Privately, or to Dealers, or at Auctions, such as eBay or similar. Contents include a large Record Collection, Collections of Toys, Books, DVDs, etc. as well as some Electronic, Recording, Musical, Hi-Fi, AV, Office Equipment, etc, mostly remnants from a recently closed business.

Preparation work is expected to be 4-5 hours in the afternoon, 4 days a week, totalling 16 to 20 weekly hours. These may be increased as the Assistant becomes familiar with the job, requiring less supervision. However, once items have been logged and priced and the preparation stage has been, effectively, completed, the Assistant could take the data on his/her Laptop and, except when other work is required on-site, could do most of the selling from home.

Please note that some items can be sold almost immediately and in the meantime.

The target is to complete the job as quickly and efficiently as possible. As Remuneration is mainly based on a %age Commission, it will serve both parties if most of the task is achieved speedily, but efficiently.

The expected Value of the possessions for sale is into six figures. The time needed to complete the Job is difficult to assess as it depends on the Assistant’s availability, ability, and efficiency. However, it could take between months and a year or 2, at the most.

The job can include some general, mostly Basic Administrative or Practical Assistance. No other Employees are involved, and the successful Applicant will work with the Owners.
