Overview:

We believe Running Changes Everything. If you believe that, too, we want to talk. With more than 280 stores and a robust e-commerce site, Fleet Feet is the largest running retailer in the country. Catering to more than runners, we pride ourselves on having an inclusive environment! We believe it’s a privilege to serve and to deliver unmatched service and support when outfitting every customer.  We like to keep things high-spirited, fast-paced and fun, wearing more than a few hats and stepping in to help out wherever it’s needed. We run together to solve problems, reach goals, encourage others and champion our brand.  We are always in pursuit of hardworking people to join our quest and bring our core values to life.

  • Strong communication and leadership skills with the ability to motivate and inspire individuals and groups.
  • Knowledge of injury prevention, recovery techniques, and basic sports nutrition.
  • CPR/AED certification (or willingness to obtain).

  • Passionate team members

We are an equal opportunity employer and believe having diverse teams in which everyone brings their whole self to Fleet Feet is key to our success. We welcome people of different backgrounds, experiences, abilities and perspectives. That is why we prioritize diversity and inclusion in our hiring practices, our culture, and our engagement with the community. 

Fleet Feet franchisees operate as independent business owners. If you apply and are hired at a Franchise location, you would be an employee of that Fleet Feet franchisee and not an employee of the Fleet Feet Corporation. We have opportunities within both our franchise locations and our Fleet Feet Corporation.
