Sports and outdoor retail group JD Sports has confirmed that it has appointed Dominic Jordan as the new chief executive of JD Outdoor.

Its outdoor division comprises Go Outdoors, Blacks and Millets and has annual sales revenues of around £550 million.

Mr Jordan joins JD Outdoor from retail group Hobbycraft, where he was chief executive from 2017 to August 2024, when the business was sold to new owners.

In his new job, he will replace Lee Bagnall, who will step down after 12 years in the role, although he will remain at the company for a period to help with transition.
