More job cuts at Simons

It follows on from 50 redundancies which were announced just over a year ago.

Simons said the move would help "make efficiencies where there had been some overlap in roles", reported the Lincolnshire Echo.

Spokeswoman Tina Holmes said: "As part of Simons Group's annual business planning the company is restructuring in line with its forward workload, which has resulted in 10 roles being made redundant. Making redundancies is never an easy decision for any business, particularly in the current climate.

"However the restructure is necessary to further strengthen our unique way of working with our customers."

Following the restructure, Simons' workforce now amounts to just over 200.

Last year, the company suffered a sharp reduction in commercial workload.
