Apple reshuffles government affairs and music divisions

Apple is reshuffling the management of its government affairs and music divisions, extending a series of recent management changes at the company, Bloomberg News reports citing “people with knowledge of the matter.”

The global affairs reorganization includes adjusting management of the government teams for Europe, India, China and other parts of Asia, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the personnel moves haven’t been announced. Apple Music, meanwhile, will get a fresh leadership structure — with two co-heads reporting to Oliver Schusser, a top company vice president who previously led the unit.
The organizational changes are just the latest moves for Apple this year. The company reshuffled its retail division, elevating Vanessa Trigub to global head of retail stores. Daniel DiCicco, head of retail real estate, recently left to become the chief of Louis Vuitton in China. On the product side, Apple has also reorganized its Siri and robotics divisions.
As part of the government affairs revamp, the heads of Europe and Asia will now report to Lisa Jackson, a former Obama administration official and vice president who reports directly to Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook. They’ll be moved from the oversight of Nick Ammann, the vice president of global policy. At the same time, Ammann, who answers to Jackson, will see the India and China groups report to him.
In the music overhaul, the group will now be overseen by longtime executive Rachel Newman as well as TikTok music veteran Ole Obermann. The two will co-manage Apple Music under Schusser.
