Rolls-Royce To Cut Nearly 2,500 Jobs

Rolls-Royce Holdings Plc announced job cuts up to 2,500 jobs to streamline the business, the company's deepest employment losses under chief executive officer Tufan Erginbilgic.

The layoffs will affect 2,000 to 2,500 people, or roughly 6 per cent of the global workforce, the company stated in a regulatory statement late Monday, confirming allegations of job losses. Rolls-Royce announced that Chief Technology Officer Grazia Vittadini will leave the business in April of next year as part of a corporate restructuring.

Erginbilgic is extending his turnaround efforts further into the corporation, having previously changed key executive roles, including the head of the civil engine unit.

Rolls-Royce employs around half of its workforce in the United Kingdom, 11,000 in Germany, and 5,500 in the United States. The last time the airline laid off a big number of employees was during the early days of the Covid-19 outbreak, when planes all around the world were grounded.
