Jaguar Land Rover plans to cut around 4,000 jobs worldwide over the next two years, mainly through voluntary redundancies among salaried and management staff rather than direct manufacturing roles. The reductions affect nearly one in 10 of JLR’s 43,000 employees and are part of a broader effort to save £1.7 billion, reduce the vehicle volume needed to break even to around 300,000 annually and strengthen the automaker’s finances. Most affected positions are expected to be in the UK, where JLR employs about 34,000 people, although the company has not provided a country-by-country breakdown. JLR plans to invest £15 billion to £18 billion over five years in electrification, digital technologies, advanced manufacturing and customer experience, launch five products within 12 months and refocus on North America. Revenue fell 9.6% year on year to £6 billion in the three months through June, while pre-tax profit excluding exceptional items dropped 68.9% to £109 million. The company is dealing with weaker demand, supply constraints, US tariffs, a 2025 cyberattack and growing competition from Chinese manufacturers as the industry shifts toward electric vehicles.
