Marks & Spencer boss Marc Bolland has bagged an annual bonus of £596,000 after the retailer reported its first profits rise in four years.
Bolland, who has led M&S for five years, received the bonus on top of a basic salary of £975,000 as part of a total pay package of nearly £2.1m for 2014/15.

Steve Rowe, executive director of M&S’s strongly-performing food division, was rewarded with a bonus of £653,000, bringing his total pay to £1.4m.
