The privilege.

An opportunity like this at Frasers Group is for the fearless.

You will see the possible in impossible and will be open-minded and humble, not afraid to take a risk if it’s the best option for the business.

· Own it and back it

You will take pride in what you do with confidence, but not overconfidence. It’s important you take ownership of your decisions, stand by your convictions and reason with contradiction.

· Not hesitate and act with purpose

You will ask for forgiveness – not permission. You will be comfortable juggling multiple projects acting both decisively and instinctively without support from managers.

· Be commercial and customer-focused.

You will be creative and analytical, balancing big-picture trends and detailed commercial performance. You will have a forensic commercial mindset, always considering the commercial impact of any decision.
