THG Ingenuity is reducing its London-based workforce as it moves the company’s operations up to Manchester.
The ecommerce specialist, which separated from THG at the start of the year, has launched a consultation with 134 members of staff across its ecommerce, marketing and CS teams.
It is understood that the actual headcount reduction will be lower.
Ingenuity currently shares its London office at 107 Cheapside in the city’s Square Mile district with THG’s companies, including CityAM.

An Ingenuity spokesperson told Retail Gazette: “As a business, we are committed to continuously improving THG Ingenuity’s operational efficiency.
“Following a comprehensive review of our organisational structure since the demerger, we have identified several opportunities across the business to enhance our operational effectiveness, including centralising our ecommerce, marketing and customer success teams in Manchester.
“Subject to the ongoing consultation process, these changes will likely result in a small number of redundancies across the business.
“Whilst this is regrettable, Ingenuity is committed to supporting all colleagues affected by these changes and, where possible, will seek to offer affected colleagues an alternative role.”
