At NIKE, we believe if you have a body, you are an athlete. This is a place to take up space, own your growth, and push boundaries—on and off the field. We champion those who break barriers and shape the future of sport.
Innovation and inclusivity drive everything we do—from designing performance gear to creating opportunities for athletes* of all backgrounds. Collaborations like NikeSKIMS and Nike Women by Yoon reflect our ongoing commitment to supporting women and the apparel that moves with them.

As a part of our unstoppable offense, you will leverage a competitive mindset, being challenged, but also surrounded by teammates who have your back.
We believe NIKE, Inc. should reflect the athletes we honor and the people around the world who love our products. To achieve that, we’re building the structures, hiring practices and culture to empower representation and opportunity at all levels of the company. Captured in our FY23 Impact Report, the percentage of women in our global corporate workforce increased to 51%, with 44% of leadership positions being held by women. We have also built deep relationships with 10 STEM-focused, external partners – including Lesbians Who Tech, Girls in Tech, Society of Women Engineers, AfroTech and Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers – bringing awareness of technology opportunities at NIKE and building a strong pipeline of talent from diverse backgrounds. Internally, Nike has eight Employee Networks, collectively known as NikeUNITED. Specifically, the Women of Nike & Friends Network (WON) continues to play a significant role in retention and promotion of women through its robust, interactive programming.
