How We Hire

Everyone is welcome at M&S. No exceptions. It’s your background, abilities and differences that make you, uniquely you. And when you’re part of M&S, that individuality has the potential to make waves.

About the role

This section tells you all you need to know about the position and its responsibilities, outlining everything we hope to see in a successful candidate.

All the details

This is an exciting opportunity to join our Cyber Security team as a Technical Information Security Officer (TISO) at M&S. Sitting at the heart of Technology and Product, you’ll provide clear visibility of cyber and technology risk while helping teams innovate safely and responsibly.

Working closely with senior stakeholders across engineering, product, and leadership teams, you’ll shape how we manage risk at scale - balancing the needs of innovation with strong security controls. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys influencing at all levels, building strong relationships, and driving meaningful change in a complex environment.

Due to high interest, this role may close earlier than advertised. We recommend applying as soon as possible.

What you’ll do

Your key accountabilities will include:

Drive and embed cyber and technology risk management across our technical and product landscape

Partner with senior stakeholders to influence decisions and ensure risk is understood and managed effectively

Develop and maintain consistent, business-aligned risk frameworks and reporting

Provide clear insights and reporting into risk posture for senior leadership and governance forums

Support teams to identify, assess, and reduce risk in line with agreed risk appetite

Who you are

Your skills and experience will include:

Strong experience in Cyber Security and Technology Risk Management

Ability to influence and engage with senior stakeholders, including executive-level leaders

Good understanding of enterprise technology environments (infrastructure, networks, applications)

Experience delivering change in complex, fast-paced organisations

Strong communication skills with the ability to translate technical risk into clear, actionable insights

What’s in it for you?

Working at M&S means being part of something bigger - helping to deliver quality, value and service to millions of customers every day. We’re inclusive, fast-moving and always evolving, with a strong sense of purpose and a focus on doing the right thing.

Here are just a few of the benefits that make working here even more rewarding:

20% colleague discount on all M&S products and many third-party brands for you and someone in your household, available once you’ve completed your probation

Competitive holiday allowance with the option to buy more

Discretionary bonus schemes linked to your performance and ours

Strong pension and life assurance to help plan for the future

Tailored induction and training to support your development from day one

Exclusive perks and savings through our M&S Choices portal

Market-leading family policies, including parental, adoption and neonatal leave

24/7 wellbeing support, including virtual GP access and mental health services

One paid volunteer day a year to support a cause that matters to you

Everyone’s welcome

We are ambitious about the future of retail. We’re disrupting, innovating and leading the industry into a more conscientious, inspiring digital era.

Being an in-person business

We're at our best when we're close to customers, and for many of us at M&S, that means working in store every day.

To stay close to customers, our support teams are in the office three days a week as we believe that skills are developed through collaboration, and that spending time together makes us more creative and connected. It also means we can solve problems as soon as they arise, learn and grow as a team, build trust, and get closer to our colleagues.

At M&S, we have Data Scientists, Analysts, and Technical Product Managers, who all share a genuine passion for harnessing data to improve people’s lives. And we’re in a unique position where we can actually help many different kinds of people, from our customers to our colleagues in store and in our support centre.

Deepak (He / Him) | Data Scientist Read full story

I think all engineers just love solving puzzles and problems. At M&S, we’re constantly learning new things, whether it’s mastering Swift UI or understanding how customers interact with technology. But this is also a business that listens to engineers and values what we bring to the table. That’s different, believe me.

Being in third-party brands, working on things M&S hasn’t done before… that plays to my sweet spot. I’ve worked in many organisations throughout my career, and it’s rare to see such cause and effect in your work. The way we’re structured means you’re encouraged to solve problems and you have the autonomy to make progress quickly.
