Directorate change

Marks and Spencer Group plc ("M&S") announces that Ronan Dunne is standing down from the Board, effective from 1 December.

Archie Norman commented, "Ronan has been a great colleague and member of the M&S Board over the past few years. He has brought professionalism and energy as well as experience of people and technological transformation. He has always had a passion for early stage businesses and tells me that is where he wants to spend his time. So he goes with our best wishes and will always remain a member of the M&S family."

Ronan Dunne said, "It has been a pleasure to be part of the M&S Board and support the Reshaping for Growth strategy. Now, as the strategy enters the next phase, it's the right time for me to step back. It also means I can devote more time to supporting early stage growth businesses, which I'm passionate about, while continuing to cheer the M&S team on from the sidelines."

This announcement has been made in accordance with the requirements of UK Listing Rule 6.4.6(R).
