In the memo to staff – which we've been able to look at (thanks to our sources) – Legere states that he has created the position for Sievert. His responsibilities will include guiding all customer facing operations across the business, in a role which sees him responsible for marketing, sales and customer care for all distribution channels both direct and indirect, for each of the company's brands.

Sievert will be replaced in the CMO position by Andrew Sherrard. Other changes to the executive team include the promotion of Ami Silverman to Executive Vice President of retail, and the installation of former MetroPCS business unit COO Tom Keys in the new position of President – T-Mobile Indirect Channels.
