M&S to create 3,400 jobs as it opens new stores
Marks & Spencer has said it will create 3,400 jobs across Britain as part of plans to revamp its stores. Five of the eight new "Full-line" stores will be situated on former Debenhams sites in the Leeds White Rose, Liverpool ONE, Birmingham Bullring, Manchester Trafford and Lakeside Thurrock shopping centres. It confirmed the jobs were new roles in additional to those that might be part of stores that relocate to different areas. "The out-performance of our recently relocated and renewed stores give us the confidence to go faster in our plan," he added. The company also saw clothing and home store sales rise 8.6%. It said recent sales across stores already revamped as part of its overhaul had seen better-than-expected trading, with clothing and home sales 26% ahead of plans in its new Colchester store.
