Beer giant BrewDog has revealed plans to reduce its workforce across the company.
According to the BBC, employees were informed of the decision via an internal email from BrewDog’s chief executive, James Taylor.
The company has not specified how many roles will be affected, stating that the move is intended to “right-size” the business.
In a statement reported by the BBC, Taylor said: “We’ve taken time to review our structure and ensure we’re focusing our energy and investment in the right areas.
“These changes have affected a number of roles across several departments.”
He added: “We don’t take these decisions lightly, but we are confident that the steps we’re taking now will help us operate more simply, stay focused, and drive the business forward.”
The announcement follows last month’s departure of BrewDog co-founder Martin Dickie.
Dickie said in a statement reported by the BBC at the time: “After over two decades in the brewing and distilling arena, sadly, for personal reasons, it’s time for me to leave the industry that I love deeply and hopefully had a positive impact on.
“Leaving BrewDog isn’t easy, but I’m ready to spend less time travelling and spend some more time at home with my young family.”
