Accident management company Helphire Group could cut as many as 300 jobs in its Bath call centre in an attempt to reduce costs.

Employees at the company’s Bath call centre will remain those most affected by the plans as the firm proposes the consolidation of its contact centre work and the work carried out at its two offices in the north of England.

Helphire however, hope to transfer some of the roles.

‘A consultation process is underway with potentially affected employees within the Bath contact centre,’ Helphire said.
