Further job losses at Speen-based 2e2





The firm announced it had gone into administration last week after racking up reported debts of £270m, and immediately made 62 of the 174 members of staff employed at its headquarters in Benham Valence redundant.
Yesterday, a further 627 members of staff across the country were made redundant, 58 of which were at its Speen offices.
Administrators FTI Consulting were called in in an attempt to find a buyer, and although were confident that many parties were interested, have this week announced that a buyer has not been found.
Joint administrator from FTI Consulting, Simon Granger, said: “Despite a significant number of initial expressions of interest in the UK business, we were unable to conclude a transaction which preserved the business as a going concern.
“Regrettably, this failure to conclude a sale coupled with a significant future funding requirement has resulted in large parts of the UK business being closed, resulting in the loss of 627 jobs.
“We are in discussions with customers to secure the ongoing operation of the data centres and service desks while alternative options are explored.”
