Apple Inc. is naming a global head of stores, a move meant to streamline management of its retail arm under senior executive Deirdre O’Brien, according to people with knowledge of the matter.

The company is promoting Vanessa Trigub to a new role as vice president of stores and retail operations globally, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the changes haven’t been announced. She previously managed locations in the Americas West region, in addition to handling retail operations. Now she’ll oversee the heads of retail for Europe and the Middle East, Asia-Pacific and the Americas East region.
