Frasers Group is restructuring its digital team based in London as it looks to relocate the department to its head office in Shirebrook.
The Sports Direct owner launched a consulation period for 45 employees on Friday (26 July), however, it is understood that not all staff will be made redundant.
It comes as the retail group looks to move its trading digital team to its Shirebrook HQ in Derbyshire. It follows the news that it put 100 jobs under consultation back in April when it revealed plans to close its Trafford office in Manchester.
