From our cutting-edge research to innovative retail solutions, we're passionate about bringing the thrill of sports to every corner of the city. With our expanding network of 10 stores and exciting projects in the pipeline, we're looking for sporty superstars to join our team!
Role Overview:
As the City Sport Market Leader for Cycling & Roller Sports, you will take full ownership of the sport business across Hong Kong. You’ll act like the business owner of your sports—shaping the product range, improving the user journey, and working with store teams, digital, and supply to grow the sport across all touchpoints.
Your mission is to define and lead the sport strategy across all channels—retail, digital, and community—by understanding user needs, building the best omni offer, activating your sport, and optimizing commercial performance.

- Challenge central brand direction when needed to ensure local relevancy

- Design a clear and inspiring product layout both in-store and online (Decathlon.hk, app)
- Plan and execute the sport’s annual commercial and communication calendar
- Create user education content and local activation campaigns
- Ensure a consistent pricing structure and easy product choice for users
- 3. Pilot sport performance
- Monitor and optimize key KPIs: turnover, margin, availability, shortage rate, and supply lead times
- Align seasonal calendar with global planning and ensure offer availability year-round
- Manage your sport’s P&L: from investment decisions to profitability
- 4. Ensure sustainability of your sport
- Integrate green KPIs and write the sustainability trajectory for your sport
- Support implementation of low-emission practices and eco-friendly packaging
- 5. Design high-performing omni layouts
- Finalize and adapt merchandising logic across store formats and digital platforms
- Collaborate with communications to source, adapt, or create content that boosts user experience and conversion
What you bring:
- Passionate about cycling, roller sports, and building a sport lifestyle in Hong Kong
- A self-starter with a business mindset and strong attention to numbers
- Able to work across teams and coordinate complex projects
- Proficient in Excel & Google Spreadsheet, and comfortable using data to guide decisions
- Fluent in English (Cantonese is a strong advantage)
- You have a proven track record in managing a sport, category, or business unit, showing impact through commercial performance, offer building, or user engagement
- Experience in retail, e-commerce, brand or category management is strongly preferred
What we offer:
- Fast Learning: Immerse yourself in a dynamic setting that promotes continuous growth and personal development.
- Entrepreneurial & Team Spirit: Embrace ownership, innovation, and collaboration as we work together to achieve success.
- Rapid Growth Opportunities: Your exceptional performance will be recognized, opening doors for rapid career advancement.
