Apple org chart

Apple org chart at a glance

The chart describes Apple as of September 2026.

• Chief executive: John Ternus, since 1 September 2026.
• Executive chair: Tim Cook, from the same date.
• Headquarters: Cupertino, California.
• Employees: about 166,000 (fiscal 2025).
• Revenue: $416.2 billion net sales (fiscal 2025).
• On the chart: 13 boxes (named leaders and function groups) in three branches: operating leadership, company-wide functions and board oversight.

How Apple's leadership is grouped

Apple does not publish who reports to whom, so the chart groups its published leaders into three branches under the company rather than drawing individual reporting lines.

• Operating leadership: John Ternus, Chief Executive Officer.
• Company-wide functions: Johny Srouji (Chief Hardware Officer), Craig Federighi (Software Engineering), Eddy Cue (Services and Health) and Sabih Khan (Chief Operating Officer), plus the Worldwide Marketing, Corporate functions (finance, legal, people and communications) and Design groups.
• Board oversight: Tim Cook, Executive Chair.

How Apple is organized

Apple's structure is functional. Instead of an iPhone division and a Mac division, each with its own general manager, Apple has company-wide experts in hardware, software, services, operations and marketing who work on every product at once. A new device draws on all of those leaders together.

That is why the chart has no product branches. Johny Srouji's hardware team, Craig Federighi's software team and Eddy Cue's services team each contribute to the iPhone, the Mac and everything else. The design, marketing and corporate groups sit beside them in the same way.

The 2026 succession adds a board branch. Tim Cook, who led Apple from 2011, moved to executive chair when John Ternus became CEO. The chart shows Cook apart from operating leadership so that it does not suggest two chief executives.

What your own org chart can borrow from Apple

• If your products share the same engineering, design and operations teams, organize by function and let each product draw on all of them, as Apple does.
• Show board roles (an executive chair, a founder on the board) in their own branch, separate from the people who run the company day to day.
• When you cannot confirm a reporting line, group people by remit instead of guessing who reports to whom.
• After a succession, redraw the top of the chart on the effective date so old versions with the former CEO do not keep circulating.

Edit the Apple org chart

The template is a list of people, not a drawing. Each row has a name, a title, a department and the person they report to, and the org chart is laid out from those rows. Change a Reports To cell and that person's whole branch moves with them; add a row marked as an open role to plan a hire; recolour a branch by changing its department.

Many readers open a company chart to borrow its shape rather than its names: keep the Apple structure, replace the people with your own team, and the layout follows.

Sources and accuracy

This is an educational reconstruction based on Apple's leadership page, its April 2026 succession announcement and its published account of its functional organization, reviewed 29 September 2026. It is not an official Apple org chart, and the grouping lines do not claim that one named executive reports to another.
