Marks & Spencer’s left shoppers in stitches after an unfortunate spelling blunder.

The retail giant advertised a job as a customer assistant in their clothing and home department at one of their stores.

But instead of spelling the store Location as ‘Worcester’ they had it as ‘Worchester’.

Customers were left tickled by the mistake.

One said: “I think M&S has got an American posting jobs for them…Worchester.”

Another added: “It would have said Woowoostarshar if that was the case.”

Social media comment on the post of Marks & Spencer left shoppers laughing after a job ad typo listed 'Worchester' instead of 'Worcester.' The mistake quickly went viral before being corrected.

A third joked:” It’s probably just a typo from someone out of the country.

“I don’t think I’ve ever had to write the name for this place and I’d have to look up the correct spelling too.”

A fourth quipped: “Where is it again?”

The successful candidate can expect to work on a two-week shift pattern.
