The taxpayer-funded giant, which last week laid off 400 workers at its Direct Line offices in Glasgow, will shed backroom staff around the UK. But bosses promised the new jobs will be created at key centres in Edinburgh and Greenock. Up to 12 offices could close in England - as 500 posts are shipped out to the Far East and India. But ten regional UK hubs will remain, including the two in Scotland where the number of workers employed is expected to grow over the next couple of years.</description><pubDate>Fri, 03 Sep 2010 03:20:15 +0100</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.alertdata.co.uk/3257.htm</guid></item><item><title>Standard Life PLC</title><link>http://www.alertdata.co.uk/8825.htm</link><description>&lt;strong&gt;Jobs go at Standard Life&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;Up to 600 jobs are being cut at life and pensions group Standard Life, Bristol being the hardest hit with 25 jobs going.</description><pubDate>Fri, 03 Sep 2010 02:20:18 +0100</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.alertdata.co.uk/8825.htm</guid></item><item><title>Weir Group Plc</title><link>http://www.alertdata.co.uk/2313.htm</link><description>&lt;strong&gt;Weir Group expands in India with Â£40m deal&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;Weir Group is set to double business in India after swallowing a fast-growing valves business based in the subcontinent for an eight-figure sum.</description><pubDate>Fri, 03 Sep 2010 00:21:52 +0100</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.alertdata.co.uk/2313.htm</guid></item><item><title>Pernod Ricard Uk Ltd</title><link>http://www.alertdata.co.uk/17216.htm</link><description>&lt;strong&gt;Emerging markets key to drinks industry says Pernod&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;Pernod Ricard is banking on emerging markets in Asia and Latin America to prop up sales next year as Scotland's second-biggest whisky producer yesterday toasted a modest rise in annual profits.</description><pubDate>Fri, 03 Sep 2010 00:21:39 +0100</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.alertdata.co.uk/17216.htm</guid></item></channel></rss>
