In a bid to balance its finances, the University of Lincoln is preparing for a potential round of job cuts. The university has entered what it describes as a ‘significant new phase of organisational restructuring and reform’. It was confirmed that the majority of departures will be facilitated via a voluntary redundancy scheme, offering enhanced terms. However, the university’s spokesperson did not dismiss the possibility of compulsory job losses. The exact number of posts to be axed remains unclear, with the University currently in discussions with trade unions regarding the matter.
