Iberia Completes Reorganisation Cutting Nearly Half of Management Positions

Iberia today announced the completion of its new management structure, which began in July with changes at the top.

The number of senior and unit managers has been reduced by 48% to 399.

However, other quasi-management positions that did not figure on the official organisation chart have now become transparent, which puts the actual reduction at 35%.

The new organisational structure is intended to meet the company’s current and future needs, and reflects the best practices in the market. The new structure is simpler and more flexible, efficient, agile, and transparent. Specific responsibilities are defined more clearly.

The number of senior executive positions has been reduced by 46% from 82 to 44. The total number of management positions has dropped by 48% from 399 to 208.

In addition, all jobs in the company have been more clearly defined.
