If you're looking for an area of retail with history, prestige and potential, the outdoors has got it all. And where better to make your mark in it than at Blacks Group, the UK's largest outdoor retailer? With household names like Millets, Mambo, Freespirit, O'Neill and, of course, Blacks, we're transforming the whole retail sector by making the outdoors sexy. Our success comes from our entrepreneurial attitude and our deep passion for retail. While it's obviously important to have an interest in our products, we're looking for people with real commercial acumen. For example, we recently launched revolutionary new tents with blackout technology in conjunction with the Ministry of Sound. Perfect for festivals. And a neat venture with bags of potential that raised eyebrows across our industry.

Fashion conscious and commercially aware

Fashion and innovation are at the heart of everything we do. From North Face to Animal, we stock - or own - the most desirable outdoor clothing brands on the high street. Whether our customers want to get noticed in a sea of tents at Glastonbury, or simply during a trip to the coast, our ranges don't just cater for every kind of excursion, they lead the fashion stakes. In fact, they're so popular they often end up becoming everyday wear, too.

Ahead of the trend

You might have already noticed many of our stores are changing. More open, accessible and easy on the eye, our new concept stores' wood and slate flooring, state-of-the-art lighting and modern fixtures are turning heads across the country.

Changes at the top

The new stores were just one of the innovations introduced by our new CEO and his Senior Management Team. They've also re-structured our Buying and Merchandising team - and their rewards. Our newly positioned salaries and revolutionary new bonus structure (based on quarterly performance, rather than targets) complement our training and development opportunities. Quite simply, we're perfectly placed to help you make the most of your talent.

450 stores

With over 450 stores, we have the muscle, profile and flexibility for you to shape our industry. Whether you're a buyer or a merchandiser, you'll have all the resources you need to find and stock those must-have products, and turn your well-researched judgement calls into superb sales.

One enormous opportunity

As you might expect, we're looking for people of all levels. So if you already work in the sector and are looking to get further, faster - or you're just starting out - we could give you the opportunity to make the outdoors bigger, fashionable, and a lot more sexy.
