Apple has appointed Meta VP Scott Tucker as the company's new VP of global litigation and financial services, according to a report by Bloomberg. This change comes as part of a reshuffling of Apple's leadership in 2026, following the introduction of CEO John Ternus. Tucker will oversee commercial and patent litigation, as well as financial legal matters for the tech giant.
Tucker's new role reunites him with SVP and General Counsel Jennifer Newstead, who moved from Meta to Apple in March as the company's chief legal officer. Newstead will continue to work alongside Tucker at Apple. Prior to joining Meta, Tucker held a senior legal role at Morgan Stanley, giving him valuable experience in financial services.
Under Tucker's leadership, Apple VP of commercial and competition litigation Heather Grenier will report directly to him, previously reporting to Newstead. Additionally, senior legal department member and VP managing regulatory and product legal matters Kyle Andeer has received a broader remit, now overseeing international legal matters, including online child safety, law enforcement, and cybersecurity.
