JD WEB NEW

🚀 Big news: MAP Talent has officially secured an exclusive partnership with JD Sports Fashion for our next three digital and technology hires across the APAC region.

Being invited in to pitch JD Sports last week was a surreal full-circle moment for Managing Director Paul O'Shaughnessy and Director, Lee Cuthbert. Like them, JD Sports was born in Manchester - a city that shaped our story, our values, and our passion for performance.

"From being kids buying sneakers in Manchester to pitching in JD’s APAC head office 30 years later - this partnership means more than business. It’s personal" - Lee.

Winning this partnership was non-negotiable.
