JD Sports Fashion

We inspire our people to reach for higher levels of performance. To achieve these standards, we only recruit the best! All employees are highly skilled, self motivated and in constant pursuit of perfection. Opportunities to progress arise quickly for those people with the right qualities and ambition.

We encourage our people to constantly seek ways to improve our business. This means challenging the way we merchandise, sell and manage the business, being creative and forward thinking in suggesting alternative solutions. Problems are solved and opportunities seized by people from all levels of the organisation, working together.

JD Sports Fashion PLC HQ is situated in Bury, Greater Manchester. JD Sports also have their global Distribution Centre in Rochdale, Greater Manchester & their highly decorative Creative Studio in Manchester City Centre.

At the JD Group, we feel passionately about supporting the urban youth of today and giving back to those who need it most, both in our local communities and in the international territories in which we operate. Our main vehicle for doing this in the UK is the JD Foundation which aims to assist charities working with disadvantaged young people.

Founded in 2015, The JD Foundation has been doing BIG things over the past 4 years – with even bigger things planned for 2020! Our mission is to support charities that work with disadvantaged young people in the UK, now supporting 16 charity partners.

We aspire to be more than a funding body, aiming to support our charity partners to increase their longevity by building sustainable organisations.
