Facebook is reportedly planning a major shuffle of its top management in India

**Facebook** is reportedly shuffling the top management of its India operations, which handles the 250 million users in the country. Facebook has been sans an India head since October 2017 and has always been led by a managing director, who reported to Facebook’s Asia-Pacific head in Singapore. According to a report by  The Economic Times, who claims to have gotten their hands on an internal email about this, Facebook is looking to appoint a new country head, who will be designated as the managing director and vice president of the India operations. The country head will reportedly work directly under the global VP of Facebook, David Fischer, who is also the leading headhunt to fill in the position in India. The Facebook India head will apparently look after “global marketing sales, partnerships, policy (except content policy), and communications.” [caption id=“attachment_4822701” align=“alignnone” width=“1024”]  A Facebook panel is seen during the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity, in Cannes, France, June 20, 2018.

Facebook believes that this organisational restructuring will make operations more efficient and successful.
