Consultant says around 2% of UK arm made redundant
Consultant RLB has said it has cut staff numbers at its UK business following a business review.
The firm has made around 2% of its workforce redundant, which is believed to be a figure in the 30s.
It said: “As a business we have a responsibility to be future fit. Therefore, we undertook a review of our business to focus on the needs of our clients and the opportunities of growth in our sector earlier in the year. This review saw less than 2% of roles across our UK business, with European offices unaffected, being made redundant.
“We continue to invest in our people and are recruiting in key areas with the focus on delivering excellent outcomes for our clients.
“We recognise the impact these changes have had on colleagues, and supported those affected throughout the process.”
Meanwhile, RLB said it has appointed a head of AI for the UK and Europe.
Alex Harris joins from car maker Volkswagen where he was in charge of the AI strategy and innovation at the German firm’s financial services division.
Over the summer, RLB moved into new offices at Canary Wharf, having been at the Shard for the past three years. The firm has around 400 staff in London.
