💨 Abstract

Following significant global losses, Nissan plans to cut around 250 jobs at its Sunderland factory, focusing on voluntary departures for shop floor and office staff. This decision is part of CEO Ivan Espinosa's £1.3 billion recovery plan, aiming to streamline operations. Despite the cuts, the Sunderland plant remains key to Nissan's EV strategy, with new electric models like the LEAF and Juke planned for production.
