Description
Roompot, a Dutch holiday parks chain, is cutting 130 jobs in their offices in Uithoorn, The Hague, Zwolle, and Goes, in the Netherlands, due to internal restructuring. The company is going from 650 to 520 full-time jobs. Landal Greenparks and Roompot merged in April 2023, and from now on the company wants to operate from one office organisation, leading to the changing and cutting of jobs. Roompot and Landal Greenparks were the top two holiday park companies, and thus, the combined company had to sell 30 holiday parks as ordered by the competition watchdog ACM.
