Job losses at East Midlands Airport
UP to 60 roles at East Midlands Airport could be cut, it was been announced today.
Staff were told that 35 new posts would be created, meaning 25 jobs in total would be lost.
It has come after a structural review by Manchester Airports Group, which owns the airport.
Geoff Muirhead CBE, group chief executive, said falls in passenger numbers was one of the reasons for the cuts.
He said: "The shorter-term outlook for the economy is not positive and as a business we expect to continue to face ongoing reductions in passenger numbers in the coming months, and we must respond to these circumstances."
East Midlands Airport is consultations with unions and hopes to achieve the proposed job reductions through redeployment and voluntary severance where possible.
