WALMART is cutting hundreds of store-support roles, in its latest move to simply its structure, Bloomberg News reported on Wednesday, citing a memo.
The U.S. retail bellwether is eliminating the market coordinator job that supports some managers, the report said. These coordinators are considered to be corporate positions, assisting market managers, who are responsible for supervising roughly a dozen store managers each, it said.
The company is also cutting some coach and coordinator roles at Walmart Academy, which trains store employees and managers, according to the report.
Market coordinators and academy coaches will be guaranteed store-level coach roles in the local area, the report said.
Walmart did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
The reported move underscores the company's continued efforts to streamline its operations. Walmart had in May announced plans to cut about 1,500 jobs, affecting teams in global technology operations, e-commerce fulfillment in U.S. stores and its advertising business Walmart Connect.
Walmart is the largest U.S. private employer with about 1.6 million employees. It employed about 2.1 million people worldwide in total, according to its website.
The company in February had cut some roles and closed its office in North Carolina, as part of a move to relocate employees to its main hubs in California and Arkansas.
In May, the world's largest retailer had also said it would have to raise prices due to the high cost of tariffs put in place by U.S. President Donald Trump-
