Liberty Global to cut Dutch headcount

Liberty Global has said it will reduce the headcount of its Dutch operations by approximately 450 over the next three years as a result of the merger of its existing UPC Netherlands unit with Ziggo. 

The reduction is expected to impact product development, innovation and infrastructure and management staff. The company will close its offices in Heerhugowaard, Rijswijk and Nijmegen and will relocate staff elsewhere where possible.
