Operational managers in M&S perform various functions in order to utilise the resources in a proper way. It includes raw materials, manpower, machines, capital and more. The major responsibility of this division is to convert raw materials into finished products so that efficiencies of production can be increased. So, without proper resources, other divisions like human resource department, sales and marketing division etc. can perform their functions.

Human resource department: This section is also as important as others in an enterprise. HR managers take various responsibilities in order to serve employees in other sections, design proper workplace, update skills and knowledge of staff members etc. It helps all departments of a company in getting high skilled workforce through which they can get support of them in accomplishment of their task (.Fernando, 2011). Since M&S has operated its business in various countries, so it is a major duty of HRM to manage work of all stores in a proper way.

Further they provide this data to production and sales departments so that they can determine in what manners products are to be manufactured and in which can be sold. It would help in increasing productivity and profitability of company in a higher manner.

Research Department: It also plays an effective role in operating business of a company in a proper manner. This division used to make proper research in analysing situation of marketplace, area where an enterprise like M&S can sale its products, sources from where they can raise proper funds on easy terms and conditions etc. These researches help other divisions in determining effectiveness of their techniques as well as need of modifications in the same.
