Primark is to axe 400 jobs in its UK stores as the fast fashion retailer responds to rising cost pressures, despite a significant bounceback in trading in recent months.
The retailer, which operates 191 stores in the UK and more than 400 internationally, said it was phasing out some store roles, including supervisors, and creating a new entry-level management role as part of the reorganisation. Overall the retailer expects the changes to leave it with about 400 fewer retail managers in the UK.
