164 jobs at HML are at risk of redundancy, the company announced today.
Following HML’s business review, announced on 29 March, it has today confirmed that it is to change its geographical structure. The review will result in the closure of its Scarborough site, which HML says has fixed costs and under capacity which do not represent value for money for the business.
Over the last three weeks HML have reviewed every function in the business and as a result 164 roles at all levels, out of a total workforce of 2,037, have been put at risk of redundancy. This breaks down to 136 people in Scarborough, 17 in Skipton, two in Padiham, two in Glasgow and seven in Derry.
The planned migration of client work from Scarborough to HML’s other sites will continue, with the closure of Prospect House being phased between June and September.
HML chief executive, Brian Brodie said: “Today’s announcement is part of our strategy to ensure the business is the right shape and size to grasp future market opportunities.
