You don’t need to work at M&S to have a special relationship with us.

Just ask our millions of customers.

But if you join our graduate programme you’ll gain a unique insight into the hard work, expertise and passion that goes into creating one of the UK’s best-loved retailers. Whichever way you look at it, it’s the perfect platform from which to build a rewarding long-term career – and a place you’ll be proud to call home.

Our programme
The M&S graduate programme offers a range of opportunities across our different business areas. If you’re interested in retail management, it will take you to Commercial Manager level in 12 months, while our Head Office programme has roles in a range of areas, from IT and Food Technology, to Merchandising and Logistics. Either way, you’ll be on the right path to a successful career – one that will give you the chance to shape and grow our business.

Our principles
Every person that steps through our doors has their own relationship with M&S; a familiarity and trust that goes beyond that of other retailers. And we work hard to earn this trust. It’s not just our pioneering Plan A pledge to help the planet and operate sustainably. It’s about doing the right thing for everyone, every day and in everything we do. It’s how we’ll continue to take the M&S experience forward – and create a company you’ll be proud to be part of.

Our team
M&S might be made up of thousands of different people, but they all have one thing in common – they believe in winning as a team. So, if you need a little help, someone will roll up their sleeves and lend you a hand. If you’ve got a question, someone will be happy to share their experience. Join the M&S family and you’ll feel valued, supported and respected. It’s good to know.
