About the Role

Join Marks & Spencer (M&S) as a Customer Assistant, where you’ll thrive at the heart of the UK’s fastest-growing retailer. This isn’t just about stocking shelves—you’ll be a passionate brand ambassador, delivering exceptional customer service, driving sales, and embracing the transformation we’re delivering.

We’re looking for down-to-earth individuals who:

  • Thrive under pressure
  • Excel in high-energy environments
  • Take pride in M&S products
  • Are resilient, confident, and motivated to fulfill strong customer demand

You’ll play a crucial role in shaping the shopping experience—selling products, providing style advice, and ensuring every customer feels valued.

Our customers expect results, and you’ll meet those expectations—fast, supported, and with a can-do attitude.


Key Responsibilities

moderno, where we work hard as a team to deliver seamless in-store experiences.

  • Deliver five-star customer service—assisting shoppers with style advice, product recommendations, and seamless transactions.
  • Ensure a high-energy, customer-focused store environment where every interaction counts.
  • Sell and promote M&S products, including our latest offerings.
  • Handle high-pressure situations with confidence and professionalism, even during peak store periods.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
