It’s already been a busy year for high-profile Microsoft departures, with longtime Xbox chief Phil Spencer out last month alongside his expected successor Sarah Bond . Today it’s the turn of Microsoft 's head of Experiences + Devices, Rajesh Jha , who leaves after more than 35 years at the company.
Jha, who oversaw some of Microsoft’s most important products and services, including Windows, Office and Teams, said in athat he’s been planning for his succession alongside CEO Satya Nadella for a while. Rather than bringing in a direct replacement, four members of his team will be promoted to executive vice president and report directly to Nadella. Taking up these new more senior roles are Office EVP and LinkedIn CEO Ryan Roslanksky, Windows and Surface president Pavan Davuluri, president of business and industry Copilot Charles Lamanna, and Microsoft 365 Core chief Perry Clarke. The outgoing Jha, who said his long career at Microsoft had been"an incredible privilege," will officially transition out of Microsoft on July 1, after which he’ll remain in an advisory role."When I think about the pantheon of leaders who have truly shaped this company, Rajesh stands firmly among them," Nadella said in a statement, adding that Jha had been a"constant" during his own time at the company."He embodies the commitment that helped build and transform Microsoft into the company it is today, and it is on the strength of that foundation that we will continue to move forward."
