Microsoft Corp. Chief Executive Officer Satya Nadella announced a broad reorganization of the company’s senior executive ranks as long-time Chief Operating Officer Kevin Turner prepares to leave for another job.

Instead of naming a new COO, Nadella appointed two executives to divvy up the sales responsibilities and report to him. Jean-Philippe Courtois will be in charge of global sales, marketing and operations spanning Microsoft’s 13 business areas, Nadella said in a noteBloomberg Terminal to employees Thursday. Judson Althoff will lead the worldwide commercial business, including government and small and medium-sized businesses.
