Telstra to slash 550 jobs, ‘reset' business
Telstra is set to cut hundreds of jobs, with Australia's largest telco looking to 'reset' its enterprise business. The telco announced the proposed 2 per cent reduction to its 31,000 staff this week. Telstra said the expected 550 job losses were not in relation to the adoption of artificial intelligence. Telstra says job cuts are not AI related. NewsWire / Max Mason-Hubers Credit: News Corp Australia 'These changes are largely driven by the ongoing reset of our Telstra Enterprise business, as well as improvements to the structure and processes of other teams across our organisation, to reduce complexity, create efficiencies, and respond to changing customer needs,' a Telstra spokesperson said. The telco also said it would work with staff who were impacted by the changes. 'If the changes go ahead, we'll work with the people in the roles that are no longer required to seek to help them find another role at Telstra,' the spokesperson said. 'If that's not possible and they end up leaving Telstra, they'll have access to our redundancy package and a range of support services.' Telstra says it will work with staff impacted by the redundancies. NewsWire / Glenn Campbell Credit: News Corp Australia Telstra had previously announced a review of its business after disappointing revenue announcements to the market. In May 2024, Telstra announced it would cut 2800 jobs by the end of the year as it looked to reduce its headcount by 9 per cent. In the end, Telstra reduced its headcount by 1900 workers. At the time, chief executive Vicki Brady said the job cuts would save the company about $350m and help improve productivity. 'Some of the proposed measures, which require consultation with employees and unions would result in up to 2800 job reductions from Telstra's direct workforce,' the company said in a statement on the ASX at the time. In an investment note put out at the end of June, UBS is projecting Telstra could generate $23.9bn in revenue and $2.28bn in net profits for the 2025 financial year.
