Sam’s Club is restructuring its product-purchasing team, marking the second big shake-up for the Wal-Mart Stores Inc. unit this month.

A spokeswoman said the warehouse club retailer will consolidate what had been six buying roles into three: merchant, senior merchant and divisional merchandise manager. The reshuffle, effective Feb. 3, will not result in a loss of jobs.
