Sainsbury's Announces 300 Jobs at Risk Across Supermarkets and Argos
Sainsbury's restructures tech and data teams into dedicated units for Argos and supermarkets, risking 300 jobs to focus on retail priorities and enhance the Argos marketplace.
- This month, Sainsbury's said around 300 jobs are at risk across its supermarket and Argos businesses as part of technology, data and head office changes.
- The grocery giant said most cuts would hit its technology and data division as it restructures into one dedicated team for Argos and two teams for Sainsbury's to maximise data and technology.
- The group is creating four regional store director roles focused solely on convenience shops and Argos marketplace will build a curated platform this month, not open or unregulated.
- Overhauling Argos' delivery network, the firm will reshape local warehouse teams and reduce driver overtime while boosting standard shift contracts, and set up a leadership board led by Graham Biggart, Managing Director of Argos.
- Amid a sector spate, the group announced last year it cut more than 3,000 jobs, including about 20% of senior management roles, while employing around 140,000 staff.
