More than a thousand jobs are to go at Ford in the UK, the company has announced.
The cuts are being made as part of a plan to cull 3,800 jobs across Europe over the next three years.
It comes as the carmaker focusses its attention on electric vehicles, with it saying last year that it will no longer make the fiesta, the UK’s best-selling car.
Cuts are to be made across varied sections of the business: 2,800 engineering are to go by 2025 and 1,000 jobs cuts will be made in the administrative, marketing, sales and distribution departments across Europe.
