The Ulster Bank is to close up to 40 branches in its latest round of cuts. However in a statement to the Mayo Advertiser a spokesperson for the bank has confirmed there are “no new job losses” as part of this announcement. Ulster Bank is implementing a programme, announced in 2012, to reduce staff numbers by 950 across the business. In a statement the bank said: “The remaining decrease in headcount should be met through natural attrition over the remaining course of the strategic plan. We continue to keep our costs under review.”

There are six Ulster Banks in Mayo; in Castlebar, Ballina, Westport, Ballinrobe, Claremorris, and Ballyhaunis, but staff won’t know where they will be reassigned until a voluntary redundancy scheme has been completed.
