The clothing retailer has struggled to bounce back from the coronavirus outbreak.
River Island is to cut 350 senior jobs as it struggles to bounce back from the impact of coronavirus.
Even after lockdown measures were eased and stores were allowed to reopen, the fashion retailer has been hit by a slump in footfall. In a letter to staff, it described Covid-19 as ‘one of the most significant challenges that River Island has ever faced’. As a result the chain, which employs 7,900 people, has told staff it intends to slash store management and senior sales roles as part of a restructure of its retail team. The move comes just a month after it had already said it would cut 250 head office staff as part of cost-cutting measures.Store closures haven’t been announced yet.
