Barclays Wealth, a firm that operates in the wealth management sector and is a subsidiary of Barclays Bank Group, is to cut 350 jobs in Peterborough. The firm will relocate 200 support jobs to Glasgow and 150 other jobs to London. Management at the firm have attributed the need to relocate to the recent expansion of the firm’s business. Those workers affected will be given the chance to relocate, but those who do not wish to relocate will be provided with a support package. The changes will be implemented from October 2007 to December 2008.
