The Bookseller reports that Wiley has “begun the consultation process” over a possible change in up to 30 UK-based jobs and another 12 positions elsewhere from their STM division. Spokesperson Susan Spilka says its another step in the integration of Blackwell’s. She emphasized that they will not necessarily eliminate all of the positions that are under discussion, and would try to “redeploy” those people elsewhere in the company. The jobs are within the central marketing services and exhibitions and conference departments, with those functions planned for relocation to the company’s publishing services operations in Singapore.Bookseller
