Housebuilder Avant Homes is looking to make redundancies across its Central region.
Consultations are underway, according to reports from Construction Enquirer, at the regional office covering Derbyshire, North Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire, and South Yorkshire.
A spokesperson from the company said that through targeted reorganisation, it has identified “clear regional overlap” which can be reduced while making sure Avant’s “multi-tenure growth strategy can be better supported by a more efficient operational infrastructure.”
The reorganisation, however, means some office-based jobs in the firm’s Central region will no longer be needed, pushing Avant to begin a redundancy consultation. The spokesperson added that the business was “committed to the redeployment of people, where possible, and a number of new roles are being proposed.”
Avant Homes Central currently has live developments ranging from Merlin’s Point at Witham St Hughes to Bennerley View in Awsworth, and is part of the Avant Homes Group, which operates across the Midlands, north of England and Scotland from eight regional operating businesses.
At present, Avant Homes Group employs more than 600 people.
