Impacted employees will have the opportunity to apply for open positions within the company, receive severance pay, and access outplacement services and development training, according to a statement from Unilever.
The company’s U.S. headquarters will remain in New Jersey, transitioning from Englewood Cliffs to a new location in Hoboken beginning March 2025.
The job cuts are part of Unilever’s broader Growth Action Plan (GAP), which — announced last March — focuses on simplifying the business and driving growth by restructuring its operations.
A major component of the plan includes the separation of the company’s €7.9 billion Ice Cream division, home to brands like Ben & Jerry’s and Magnum, into a standalone entity by the end of 2025.
