Four key Twitter executives are to leave the company as the social network continues its attempt to turn around its fortunes.
Twitter's head of product Kevin Weil and head of media Katie Jacobs Stanton are to leave the company in the coming weeks, as is Alex Roetter, Twitter's head of engineering. Skip Schipper, who was responsible for human resources matters, is also departing.
The news was confirmed in a tweet by chief executive Jack Dorsey on Sunday, who said the foursome could now have some "well-deserved time off". Mr Dorsey - who co-founded Twitter - said when he returned to the company last month that he would make sweeping changes.
The first was to lay-off 8% of the company's workforce and it now seems changes are being made among top executives. Also leaving is Jason Toff, head of Vine, Twitter's mini-video service. He tweeted that he was to join Google to work on virtual reality.
