The Silicon Valley tech giant has reshuffled some of its top sales executives.

Facebook has moved around two of its top performers in the sales organization and given new responsibilities to one of them, it is learnt, as it reconsiders how it handles small and medium business (SMB) sales.

A Facebook spokesperson confirmed the moves but otherwise declined to comment.

The first big change sees Facebook's veteran vice president of small business, Dan Levy, move out of the sales organization altogether.
