Role Overview
Our management opportunities place you at the centre of the store’s success. You’ll lead from the front — motivating teams, influencing performance, and supporting store operations to deliver strong commercial results.
You will inspire colleagues to excel, uphold high operational and visual standards, and contribute to ambitious sales targets and an outstanding customer experience.
These roles require confident leadership, strong commercial awareness, and the ability to elevate your team so the store thrives together.

Previous experience in a retail management or supervisory position, demonstrating readiness for a leadership role.
Strong leadership skills with the ability to guide, motivate, and develop colleagues.
Confidence in analysing KPIs and sales data to support commercial decision‑making and shift planning.
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, ensuring professional interactions with customers and colleagues.
Proven success driving sales performance and contributing to KPI achievement within a retail environment.
Desirable Attributes
Passion for retail, sport, fashion, and representing the JD brand.
Proactive, solutions‑driven leadership approach.
Hands‑on attitude with a commitment to leading by example.
Resilient, adaptable, and able to remain composed under pressure.
Customer‑centric mindset with a strong focus on delivering the premium JD experience.
