Jaguar Land Rover will cut around 4,000 global jobs while seeking £1.7 billion in savings. Are tariffs, China and Jaguar’s luxury-EV gamble pushing Britain’s biggest carmaker into crisis?
Jaguar Land Rover has confirmed that it intends to cut around 4,000 jobs globally over the next two years, amounting to nearly 10 per cent of its worldwide workforce. The redundancies will primarily affect salaried, management and other non-manufacturing roles, with JLR hoping to achieve as many of the reductions as possible voluntarily. The company has yet to reveal precisely which sites, departments or countries will carry the greatest burden.
