To colleagues occupying Management and Support positions, I would like to thank you again for the patience and understanding you have given me and my ELT team as we as we commenced colleague 121s today. Where it has been proposed that an existing role will not be required in the future structure, we have spoken to the impacted colleagues. These colleagues are taking some time to think about how they wish to proceed. I want to take the opportunity to recognise the contribution these colleagues have made to get the business to where it is today, and I would personally like to thank them for that.
For any impacted colleague, we have compiled a support offering. I encourage you to use the services available and if there is anything we have missed, that you would find beneficial, please let us know by emailing colleaguecommunications@ipn.co.uk.
