Baker McKenzie has begun cutting hundreds of global business services roles as it reorganizes and increases use of AI, the firm and Bloomberg reported on Feb. 10, 2026. The reductions—less than 10% of support staff, about 600 to 1,000 employees—affect know-how, research, marketing and secretarial teams across London, Belfast and offshore centres. The firm says changes aim to boost efficiency and shift roles toward client-facing work.
