Santander also noted that 291 jobs were at risk due to the latest closures, which come less than a year after the bank announced back in March 2025 that it was closing that it was shutting down 95 branches, affecting 750 employees.<\/a><\/p>\n

In July last year Santander’s then UK chief executive Mike Regnier, said that 2,000 jobs had been lost in the preceding year under the bank’s restructuing. He added that further redundancies “might well be” likely.<\/p>\n
