The changes were announced in a memo circulated to staff by CEO Sundar Pichai and viewed by Business Insider.
"Ben, after two extraordinary decades building Search from the group up, will move to a new role tying our longstanding efforts for learning - across areas like Education and Arts & Culture - more closely to our flagship products and core user experiences," wrote Pichai in the memo.
