"Jackson, technically "vice president for Environment, Policy, and Social Initiatives," will retire in "late January 2026," Apple says. Newstead, who is currently Meta's chief legal officer, will take over Apple's general counsel role on March 1st, 2026, from Adams, who has been Apple's general counsel since 2017. With Jackson's retirement and Newstead coming on board, Apple is also making some organizational shifts and shifting some responsibilities to Williams' COO replacement, Sabih Khan."
"The Government Affairs organization will transition to Adams, who will oversee the team until her retirement late next year, after which it will be led by Newstead. Newstead's title will become senior vice president, General Counsel and Government Affairs, reflecting the combining of the two organizations. The Environment and Social Initiatives teams will report to Apple chief operating officer Sabih Khan."
