Job cuts ruled out as company centralises support services
Homeserve managers have undergone job changes following a major company restructuring.
The emergency repair and home insurance company said it had decided to centralise its business by pulling together all support services, including HR and marketing, into one department, allowing managers to focus exclusively on operations.
A spokesperson said: “There have been quite a lot of changes in the organization. This will make it more client-centric.”
The restructuring will allow for more cross-selling opportunities within the company’s various departments.
The restructuring has not led to any job losses but some of the general managers have been allocated different roles within the company.
Details on the job changes have yet to be released.
Chief operating officer Dominic Shorrocks said: “These changes are the logical next step in the evolution of our business. They will allow us to capitalise on the major investments we have made in technology and drive a further step change in the quality of service we can deliver to our partners and their customers.”
Homeserve has also made a significant investment in moving towards a single trade platform.
The company has said it has ambitious growth plans and made headlines in June after pulling out of talks to buy specialist warranty and electrical appliance insurer Domestic & General Group (D&G).
