Legends of tomorrow give retail a makeover

Want to be part of an evolution? To take advantage of our decades-long experience in retail and reimagine your future? Put the spark into our stores and join us on our Retail Management School Leaver Programme. Because it’s never too soon to think about your future legacy.

Across 12 months, you’ll join one of our Academy stores, learning from retail pros about how our network of stores operates. From supply chain to the shop floor, see how a future with us will shape your skills in management – as well as the way we work as a business. Here, you can learn all about our branding, how we deliver a seamless online and in-store experience for customers, as well as how our many departments come together to form the exciting world of M&S retail.

On this programme, you’ll not only learn about our historic business – but you’ll also gain hands-on exposure, rotating around each area of our stores including Food, Clothing & Home and Store Operations. Manage multimillion-pound budgets, train to be a legendary leader, push yourself to your full potential, and collaborate with a team of people who want you to be at your best.

By the time your first 12 months are over, you’ll be ready to take on your first management role. You could even apply to join our Degree Apprenticeship Programme at one of our partner universities. No matter which route you choose, you always have our unwavering support and guidance.

We’re looking for legends who have a passion for retail, a customer-centric approach and an interest in the commercial world. Sound like you?
