Morrisons has put a further 80-plus jobs at risk at its Bradford head office, in the latest round of restructuring to hit the supermarket’s central operations.

The retailer is understood to have told affected colleagues on Tuesday that around 86 roles could be made redundant, according to reports from staff at the site.

Morrisons boss Rami Baitiéh had previously credited increased use of data and AI to help deliver £940m in savings over the past three years.

The grocer announced earlier this year that it would ramp up its use of data, automation and AI as part of a wider cost-cutting drive, which included job cuts across all functions at its Bradford head office.

The latest proposals come just months after Morrisons placed around 200 roles at risk at its Hilmore House headquarters as part of a wider restructuring programme.

The April changes affected just under a tenth of the staff based at the Bradford site, with the retailer citing plans to streamline its central operations and automate a number of manual processes.

Morrisons has been undertaking a multi-year transformation of its business, with cost reduction and simplification at the centre of its strategy.

The latest cuts also follow a separate restructuring of its convenience and general merchandise teams earlier this year, which put around 100 head office roles at risk.

Under those plans, Morrisons merged its supermarket and convenience commercial operations into a single division, while relocating parts of its general merchandise buying operation to Warrington.

The supermarket has also been cutting costs across its wider estate. In May, it announced plans to close up to 100 loss-making Morrisons Daily convenience stores, putting hundreds more jobs at risk.

Morrisons’ workforce fell by almost 5,000 during the year to October 2025, although the retailer said much of the reduction came through employees leaving and not being replaced rather than a further supermarket-wide redundancy programme.

The grocer has said its restructuring is intended to simplify the business and improve efficiency as it faces intense competition and higher operating costs.

The latest head office proposals are subject to consultation, meaning the final number of redundancies could change.

Morrisons has previously said it would support affected colleagues throughout the consultation process and seek to redeploy employees into alternative roles where possible.
