Apple Reportedly Promotes Vanessa Trigub to New VP Role in Retail Leadership Restructuring
The reported move positions Trigub as a potential successor to Deirdre O'Brien and reflects Apple's efforts to streamline global retail operations.
- Vanessa Trigub is reportedly being promoted to the newly created role of Vice President of Stores and Retail Operations, overseeing global retail operations.
- Trigub, a veteran at Apple since 2007, has held roles in finances, mergers, and acquisitions, and most recently managed retail operations in the Americas West region.
- The new role is part of Apple's strategy to simplify its retail organization and reduce the number of direct reports to Deirdre O'Brien, Apple's SVP of Retail and People.
- Sources suggest that Trigub is being groomed as a potential successor to O'Brien, who has been with Apple for over three decades.
- This leadership restructuring follows another recent executive shift, with Mike Rockwell taking over Siri oversight from John Giannandrea.
