Company mission
To put creators at the center of our society, to help art lovers in their artistic discoveries and finally to make the art market more transparent and accessible.
-17% employee growth in 12 months
Our take
Singulart aims to be the one-stop shop for people who are ready and have the cash to invest in some upscale home decor.
A large part of Singulart’s sales pitch is built on its support for artists. The art and furniture listed on its site are all the work of independent creators rather than mass-produced, so every piece is unique. As well as this, it boasts that half of the artists whose work it sells are women, a rarity in the art world. It has partnerships with some more well-known artists, as well as a sister site - balthasart - for emerging creators.
It’s built a sizeable user base, and its gallery lists the work of over 12,000 artists and designers from 110 countries. Recently it has implemented an AI search feature which allows users to find art by using natural language. Moves such as this will cement its strong position in the art sales space.

Benefits
- Location: Our office is located in Châtelet. You will work in the heart of Paris and easily access everything
- And Parity: 64% of our employees are women! We also try to be more inclusive in our Tech Team by creating partnerships with 50inTech or Ada Tech School! For Women’s Rights Day, we dedicated an entire week to the subject with conferences and debates
- Remote Policy: We value your work life balance and therefore created an official charter. We propose 2 days remote and 3 days per week at the office. Why? Because we believe that it’s together that the magic happens but we also know that from time to time you need to be able to work without any disturbances
- Wellbeing at Work: Your wellbeing counts! We propose a Neoness program, fresh fruits twice a week, webinars on how to handle remote working or the mental workload or even piqueniques when the sun is shining!
- Discover art with us: We provide different training on art throughout the year. We organize each year the visit of a specific museum: Fondation Cartier in 2019, Fondation Société Générale in 2020 and La Bourse du Commerce for 2021!
- CSR: Let's be honest, we are still at the beginning but we created our own internal group “The Climate Crew” and organized our first Earth Day! So if this topic is important to you and would like to contribute to the strategy, join us!
Company values
- Come as you are: We are not all Nirvana fans but we definitely believe that it’s through difference that we can grow so let’s start by being YOU!
- Diversity: 27 nationalities among 130 people. We celebrate it all year round with specific events dedicated to all the different cultures (Chinese New Year, Italian cooking lesson,..)!
