Robert Gordon University puts 135 more jobs at risk of redundancy
RGU said in a statement: “Robert Gordon University has today informed all staff of the latest developments of its Finance Transformation Project.
“This includes a proposed business case, subject to collective consultation, that contains the potential of 135 roles being made redundant as part of further restructuring proposals across areas of the university.
“This is to ensure the long-term financial sustainability of the institution against significant external challenges.”
Prof Steve Olivier, RGU’s principal and vice-chancellor, said: “Like many universities across the UK, Robert Gordon University continues to face significant financial challenges due to a steep drop in international student enrolments, a sustained decline in public funding, and inflationary cost pressures.
“The proposed changes will future-proof RGU as an institution and ensure that we maintain our provision of an excellent student experience while delivering vital social, economic and cultural contributions to the north east and wider nation.”
After the collective consultation ends, individual consultation will begin in the New Year.
