HMV Boss Trevor Moore Made Redundant

The boss of HMV is one of the latest 60 people to be made redundant at the collapsed chain, Sky News has learnt.

Trevor Moore, who became the chain's chief executive in September last year, used to be the head of Jessops - which also called in administrators last month.

HMV's administrators Deloitte confirmed a further 60 people had been made redundant at the company's head offices.

It comes after 930 job losses were announced on Thursday, as a result of over planned 60 store closures over the next two months.

Before collapsing last month, HMV - which was founded in 1921 - employed around 4,000 people.

Joint administrator Nick Edwards said: "Following our announcement of the closure of 66 stores yesterday, it has been necessary to consider the head office support required for the reduced store portfolio. 

"As a result of this review, a number of redundancies at the head office have been made. 

"This has been a difficult decision, but a necessary one in restructuring the business. 

"We would like to express our gratitude to staff for their continued support during the administration."

Last month, Mr Moore told Sky News he was "absolutely confident" about the future of the HMV and its place on the high street.

The chain had struggled to compete with increasing competition from online retailers, supermarkets and online streaming websites.
