DLA Piper plans to cut up to 200 support jobs in the U.K., with the bulk of those roles being moved to a new back-office operations center in Warsaw. The cuts amount to 18 percent of DLA Piper’s 1,100 U.K. support staffers.
The redundancies will primarily hit employees in the firm’s finance, human resources, information technology, marketing and secretarial teams. The firm’s two Yorkshire offices in Leeds and Sheffield will bear the brunt of the layoffs. A firm spokesman did not immediately return a request for comment as to whether DLA Piper’s U.S. operations would also be included in the restructuring.
