Virgin Holidays makes redundancies after cost review
Virgin Holidays has made a number of redundancies as part of ‘organisational changes’ and a review of costs.
Among those made redundant is general manager brand and communications Helena Beard.
The long haul operator said it had conducted a thorough review of its costs, to achieve an overall saving of approximately seven per cent.
“In addition to the cost savings identified as a result of this review, organisational changes have been proposed,†a statement said, without clarifying details of potential job losses.
“The new structure has been achieved through natural attrition, a reduction in short term contracted roles and a review of selected additional roles across the company.â€
The company employs 600 permanent staff in the UK.
“These proactive changes will enable the company to continue delivering award winning worldwide holidays to its customers, and maintain its strong market position moving forward,†the statement said.
