Marks & Spencer Ireland has announced 210 seasonal job opportunities across its 16 Irish stores, as part of a wider festive recruitment drive.
The retailer is looking to fill customer assistant roles nationwide to support the busy Christmas period, with 210 positions available in both the food and clothing & home departments.
Customer assistants play a key role in M&S, as they provide a seamless shopping experience by assisting customers and keeping shelves stocked, as well as helping with recommendations.
Seasonal colleagues also support the retailer’s Christmas Food to Order service, ensuring that festive essentials are ready on time for customers across Ireland.
M&S Ireland has opened the recruitment window, with new colleagues starting from mid-November, and interested candidates can apply on the M&S careers page.
Successful applicants will be called in, either for an individual or group interview.
Speaking about the recruitment drive, the regional manager for Marks & Spencer Ireland, John Paul McShane, commented, “The contribution of our seasonal colleagues, from preparing orders to assisting customers with collections, is essential to ensuring a smooth and successful Christmas season for M&S.
“Our store colleagues are core to delivering M&S’s renowned service during the busy Christmas season.
“To guarantee exceptional customer service, we’re investing in ensuring we have enough colleagues on the shop floor during the Christmas period.
“Many of our current colleagues started with M&S in seasonal roles and have progressed through internal programmes like Stepping into Team Manager.
“With opportunities available across Ireland, we encourage anyone seeking a dynamic, flexible role this Christmas to apply.”
