WHO WE ARE
Known best as the 'Undisputed King of Trainers', JD Sports reigns supreme as one of the biggest and best global Sports Fashion brands across footwear and apparel.
Founded in 1981 in Greater Manchester, UK, JD Group has achieved remarkable growth through rapid global expansion and is now one of the world's leading sports fashion retailers. With over 3,400 stores worldwide, this includes a rapidly expanding footprint across Australia, New Zealand and APAC.
We don’t follow the market - we define it. With continued growth across the region, new stores opening, existing stores evolving, and major brand partnerships continuing to grow, we're looking for a Procurement Coordinator to help bring our retail environments to life.
THE ROLE
Shape the Stores. Drive the Detail. Help Bring JD Sports to Life.
This is a newly created role within our APAC Procurement function - designed to support our continued expansion across Australia, New Zealand and Southeast Asia.
Reporting to the Head of Procurement APAC, you’ll play a critical role in bringing JD stores to life — coordinating the fixtures, fittings and equipment that shape every in-store experience.
This role sits at the intersection of procurement, project coordination and retail delivery, giving you exposure to large-scale store rollouts, international suppliers and cross-functional teams.
If you enjoy working in a fast-paced environment, love seeing projects come together, and want to build a career in procurement or retail development — this is your opportunity.
What You'll Be Doing
End-to-End Fixture Coordination
Manage fixture procurement for new store openings, refurbishments and upsizes across APAC
Review store layouts, fixture call-offs and Retail Procurement Schedules (RPS) to ensure accuracy before ordering
Act as a key “sense check” across design and commercial inputs, validating quantities, specifications and requirements
Delivery Management
Coordinate procurement timelines to ensure fixtures are ordered, manufactured, shipped and delivered on time
Track shipments and logistics across international suppliers (primarily China-based)
Support customs clearance, freight tracking and delivery scheduling aligned to store opening timelines
Assist in delivering shop-in-shop installations with global brand partners (Nike, adidas, On)
Stakeholder Collaboration
Work closely with Design, Visual Merchandising, Commercial Operations and Project Management teams
Engage with regional and global teams across UK, Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines
Build strong supplier relationships and help drive procurement outcomes across multiple time zones
Ongoing Store Support
Manage fixture requests for existing stores including replacements, damages and upgrades
Forecast ongoing fixture requirements and support inventory planning
Oversee fixture variations across different store generations and formats
Systems & Process Management
Manage procurement tracking, forecasting and reporting through Excel and internal systems
Raise and manage purchase orders via JD’s global procurement platform
Track shipments through logistics tools and maintain visibility across all procurement activity
Commercial & Cost Awareness
Support CAPEX management by reviewing fixture costs against approved budgets
Assist in managing design changes while maintaining cost discipline
Identify opportunities to drive value through supplier and procurement decisions
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
You’re organised, detail-oriented and thrive in environments where things are constantly moving. You enjoy being across the detail, solving problems, and working with multiple stakeholders to make things happen.
Ideally you'll have:
Experience in a coordination, procurement, administration or operations-focused role
Strong coordination, organisation and time management skills
High attention to detail, particularly in reviewing documentation and data
Confident communicator with the ability to work across teams and regions
Exposure to supplier management and purchase requisition processes
Experience maintaining records, tracking requests and managing data
Retail, procurement or visual merchandising experience (preferred but not essential)
Exposure to fixture procurement or store development activities (advantageous but not essential)
Why this role is different
Brand-new role with real scope to shape how procurement operates
Regional exposure across ANZ and Southeast Asia
️ Involvement in end-to-end store delivery — from concept to opening
Work with global suppliers and major brand partners
Clear pathway to grow into deeper procurement and supplier management
WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU?
Join a global, high-growth retail leader
Be part of rapid expansion across APAC
Brand-new Sydney CBD office
Generous staff discounts for you, friends & family
Wellbeing programs & Employee Assistance Program
