Join M&S as a Shift Lead where you’ll play a vital role in delivering great
service while supporting the smooth running of the store during key trading and
operational hours.
This isn’t just a retail job, it’s a role for people who love pace, take pride
in getting things done, and are ready to step up and support the team when it
matters most. You’ll combine hands-on delivery with leadership responsibility,
helping to keep the store moving and ready to trade.
We’re looking for confident, proactive individuals who lead by example, support
their colleagues and bring energy to every shift. You’ll be a trusted go-to on
the shop floor, helping to coordinate activity and keep standards high.
• At M&S, our customers don’t wait. You’ll be operating in a high-demand
environment, stepping in to lead the floor when needed and ensuring customers
receive fast, efficient service.
• You’ll lead by doing. Whether it’s serving customers, filling stock or
supporting at the tills, you’ll stay hands-on while helping guide the team
through busy periods.
• You’ll support the flow of the day. From coordinating tasks to helping
allocate resource, you’ll make sure the right things happen at the right time
to keep the store ready to trade.
• Efficiency and effectiveness are non-negotiable. You’ll help maintain high
standards across the shop floor, ensuring it’s clean, safe, well-stocked and
easy to shop.
• You’ll be a role model for the team. Supporting colleagues, sharing best
practice and helping create a positive, inclusive environment where everyone
can perform at their best.
• Being digitally confident is essential. You’ll use store systems and tools to
support operations and help the team deliver great results.
• Flexibility is vital. Retail moves fast and you’ll move faster. From opening
and closing tasks to supporting across different areas, you’ll adapt to what
the business needs.
This is a role for people who are ready to step up, take ownership and support
their team to deliver at their best.
This is where great service meets real responsibility.
