London CNN —Aircraft engine maker Rolls-Royce will slash up to 2,500 jobs worldwide in a bid to streamline its operations and tackle years of underperformance. (Rolls-Royce is a separate company from Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, a wholly owned subsidiary of BMW. The two businesses bearing the Rolls-Royce name were part of the same firm until the 1970s.) “This is another step on our multi-year transformation journey to build a high-performing, competitive, resilient and growing Rolls-Royce,” Erginbilgic said. “Its transformation plan is faring well, with improving operations, the post-pandemic rebound in international flying and increased defense spending.”
