The role runs from 07 November 2026 to 3 January 2027 and is on site in Mansfield, ENG. Adidas positions its stores as the primary way customers connect with the brand, and this is a chance to help people get more from sport while joining a team that cares about people, optimism, and a proactive approach.

How your days unfold on the shop floor
Your main focus is helping customers connect with the right adidas gear, acting as a brand ambassador who shares the brand story in line with adidas values. You’ll work with others to keep the shop looking sharp, support deliveries and replenishment, and push towards store goals by keeping merchandise flowing and customers engaged. You’ll also take ownership of your learning by taking part in applicable training and applying what you learn on the floor to improve service and sales.
What you need to bring to this festive team
- More than a month of hands-on experience in a sports or fashion retail setting
- Understanding of store KPIs and how to interpret them to drive sales
- Strong customer service and sales skills
- A team-first mindset with resilience, curiosity, and a readiness to learn
- Clear English communication
- Interest in product training and personal development programs Adidas offers to staff
- Comfort working in a busy retail environment during holiday periods and the ability to adapt quickly
Pay, perks and practical details
The role comes with competitive compensation and rewards, including potential bonuses and a referral program. You’ll receive free uniform sets twice a year, plus a discount on adidas products online and in all own stores. Adidas fosters a modern store environment that uses up-to-date retail technology, and the company emphasises a culture of diversity, equity, and inclusion. There are development opportunities across retail, office, and distribution centers for those who want to grow with the brand, and training is part of the employee experience to help you perform well and progress.
The position is onsite in Mansfield, England, with the festive season serving as the core period of activity. The focus is on creating a positive customer experience and contributing to a team that supports each other’s success during a busy time of year.
Tips to help you shine in this holiday role
Lead your resume with any sports or fashion retail work you’ve done, and call out more than a month of experience if you have it so hiring teams can see you’re comfortable in a store environment.
When you describe your must-have skills, share a concrete example of how you interpreted store KPIs to boost a sale or improve the customer flow, and how you delivered strong service during a busy shift.
In interviews, be ready to illustrate how you function as part of a team, stay resilient under pressure, and approach learning with curiosity. Have a short story ready about how you completed training and applied it on the shop floor to improve a process or customer interaction.
Ask a thoughtful question about the holiday period’s targets and how success is measured day-to-day in this Mansfield store, for example: what would a strong first week look like, and which product lines will be prioritized to maximize customer impact.
