Store Colleague - Hourly Role (£12.81)
Welcome to JD. Established in 1981 with a single store in Northwest England, the JD Group is an omni-channel retailer of Sports Fashion, Outdoors, and Gyms, expanding across global markets with fast-paced innovation. Listed on the London Stock Exchange since 1996 and a FTSE100 company since 2019, we're shaping the future of sports and outdoor retail.
"Born in 1981. Built for Now." We don’t just sell products—we build communities, break trends, and set the pace in our industry.
Role Overview
We're looking for proactive, customer-focused individuals to join our fast-paced, ambitious team as a Store Colleague—where every day matters.
Key Responsibilities
- Greet and engage customers with confidence and energy.
- Display buyer expertise, using in-store devices to check product stock, share options, and enhance the customer journey.
- Ensure the shop floor is clean, tidy, and replenished, maintaining elite presentation standards.
- Support operational tasks—till work, stock restocking, safety compliance, and seasonal preparations.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
