With a renewed imperative to prioritise value creation through quality and profit-over-volume approach, the company said that it is in the process of creating a flatter structure designed to empower employees to create and deliver at speed and with a clear purpose.

"We need to reduce the cost base to achieve a lean foundation, which will allow us to transform most effectively into a more agile organisation," it said.
