Tesco is to cut 1, 200 jobs at its head office, only a week after announcing that 1, 100 jobs would be axed at a call centre, as its chief executive, Dave Lewis, presses on with a cost-cutting drive. The UK's largest supermarket chain told staff of the cuts on Wednesday morning. A quarter of staff at offices in Welwyn Garden City and Hatfield face the axe, along with some jobs at the Birmingham head office of Tesco's One Stop chain and the retailer's technology and retail support centre in Bangalore, India. "This is a significant next step to continue the turnaround of the business. This new service model will simplify the way we organise ourselves, reduce duplication and cost but also, very importantly, allow us to invest in serving shoppers better, " a spokesperson for the company said. "We have made good progress so far in our turnaround but we have more to do. We will work with colleagues to support them as we go through this important transition. " Head office jobs are to go across many functions including property, finance, buying and marketing once consultation has been completed over the summer.
