Sales Assistant – Sports Direct

Company Description

Sports Direct is the UK’s No.1 sports retailer, offering an unbeatable range of sportswear, footwear, and equipment at competitive prices, driving customer loyalty. Part of the Frasers Group, a dynamic and innovative business, we’re reshaping retail with ambitious growth—currently operating 600+ stores and increasing.

If you thrive on energy, drive, and fast-paced retail, this is your opportunity to succeed alongside a mold-breaking team.


About the Role

This is retail with momentum. As a Sales Assistant at Sports Direct, you’ll be at the forefront of the UK’s fastest-growing store network, assisting customers in real time, maintaining a sharp store floor, and powering collaboration every trading day. No two shifts are identical, and that’s the energy we’re powered by.


Key Responsibilities

  • Customer Service
    • Greet customers, answer questions, and assist in finding the right products.
    • Deliver outstanding service from the moment customers enter to checkout.
  • Store Maintenance
    • Keep the store floor tidy, well-stocked, and visually appealing.
    • Replenish shelves and rails to ensure seamless operations and maximum customer convenience.
  • Sales & Operations
    • Process transactions quickly, accurately, and efficiently.
    • Promote current promotions and identify upsell opportunities.
    • Work collaboratively with team members to excel in daily sales and service targets.

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.
