A NUMBER of staff at a data recovery firm in Bicester have been made redundant after a takeover - and more jobs could be lost.
Vogon, based at the Talisman Business Park in London Road, was taken over by American firm Kroll Ontrack about eight months ago.
At the time of the takeover, Vogon employed 28 people in Bicester.
Ryan Boekelheide, spokesman for Kroll Ontrack, said he could not confirm how many redundancies there would be or how many had been made so far.
But he said: "There have been a few redundancies already. At this point there are a few coming up to work in London. A small majority may end up choosing to take a redundancy package."
Mr Boekelheide added all staff had been offered the opportunity to apply for new jobs within the company instead of taking redundancy.
He said: "We will be keeping a Bicester presence with some specialised computer forensics support and research and development."
A final decision on how many redundancies the firm will make is expected by the end of this month.
