Why did you join Marshalls?

In 2014, I was only two years out of university when a previous Line Manger, who was an ex-employee of Marshalls, sent me a job vacancy for an Assistant Product Manager role. Her high regard for Marshalls, its market leading status in its industry and commitment to individual development made it an opportunity I couldn’t overlook.

The unique focus on its people and approach to continuous learning sets Marshalls apart. Here, I've found more than a job; it's a journey of achievement and belonging. The people that work here and the collaborative environment encourages creativity and excellence.

Marshalls has been pivotal in my professional journey, providing an abundance of opportunities for skill enhancement. I've not only grown in my present and current roles, but I have also been encouraged to explore new avenues within the organisation along the way taking me into different divisions within the company from Marketing to Operations.
