Urban Splash blames economic gloom for 60 job losses
PROPERTY group Urban Splash is to cut more than 20% of its workforce after confirming 60 jobs will be lost.
The Manchester-based firm, which has a Liverpool office, announced in September it was consulting with employees about potential job losses.
It blames the deteriorating economy and disappointing sales in the first half of 2008.
The company is involved in a number of major schemes in the region, including the £100m regeneration of the Great George Street area, converting the former Littlewoods Pools HQ on Edge Lane into apartments, and the 34-acre Southport Marine Park.
