Frasers Group has launched the first phase of its recruitment drive for its highly anticipated FRASERS concept store in Dundee, set to open in June 2025.
Located in the 440,000 sq. ft Overgate Shopping Centre, the new 100,000 sq. ft store is undergoing one of the largest shop fit-outs in Dundee’s history.
Frasers Group, which acquired Overgate in March 2023, has been accelerating store openings and lease extensions across the centre as part of a major retail transformation.
New recruitment positions advertised
As construction continues at pace, Frasers Group is now hiring for key senior management roles, including:
Store Manager: Apply here
Assistant Manager: Apply here
Floor Manager: Apply here
Candidates must have a strong retail management background, experience leading teams of 30+ staff, and an awareness of premium or luxury brands.
Successful applicants will receive a competitive salary, commission, staff discounts across Frasers Group brands (including Flannels and Sports Direct), discounted gym membership, and career development opportunities.
A major retail boost for Dundee
The opening of FRASERS in Dundee marks a significant expansion for the brand in Scotland. The store will house a range of premium, lifestyle, and sports brands, including Sports Direct, USC, Evans Cycles, and GAME. The new concept store will take over the former Debenhams unit, undergoing a multi-million-pound transformation.
Frasers Group’s investment in Overgate has already brought several high-profile retailers to Dundee, including Rituals, Pandora, Castore, Lovisa, Bee Inspired, and The Leith Collective. More than 20 leases have been renewed since the acquisition, reflecting growing confidence in the Overgate's future.
New brands coming to the centre
Several major brands have also confirmed upcoming store openings in Overgate, including:
Mango: The Catalan fashion retailer has signed a ten-year lease for a 4,081 sq. ft store, opening this spring.
Clarks: Celebrating its 200th anniversary in 2025, Clarks will open a 2,160 sq. ft store in April.
Mooboo Tea: A new concept store for the bubble tea brand has opened on the upper level.
Cinnabon: The American bakery chain, known for its cinnamon rolls, has signed a ten-year lease and is set to open this spring.
Muffin Break: Expanding into a larger unit on the lower mall, next to Five Guys.
In a further boost to Overgate’s regeneration, three key existing tenants Next, Office, and TUI have extended their leases, with Next committing to a five-year extension.
With construction progressing rapidly and recruitment now underway, FRASERS Dundee is set to make a major impact on the city’s retail landscape when it opens its doors in June 2025.
