The Interior Department has conducted a significant personnel reorganisation, reassigning more than 25 senior career staff members to new roles within the agency. These employees, who hold positions within the Senior Executive Service, remain employed by the department but have been moved to different assignments.

The Interior Department holds broad responsibility for managing the nation's public lands, national parks, wildlife refuges, and mineral resources. The shuffling of these senior career positions affects experienced federal professionals who typically remain in their roles across different administrations.
