Perhaps no business has come under more scrutiny in recent years than President Donald Trump’s namesake company, the Trump Organization.
At that company, power is currently vested in the hands of Trump’s two eldest sons and Allen Weisselberg, a senior official at the business. But there are several officials who make up the upper ring of the Trump Organization.
Many of those employees have managed to stay out of the limelight, even at a time when many around the world have their eyes fixated on Trump’s company.
Here are some of the power players at the Trump Organization:

Trump’s eldest son has been the most public face of his father’s company since the president took office in early 2017. Part of the arrangement Trump made ahead of taking the presidency was to pass control of the company off to Trump Jr., his brother Eric, and another senior official at the company.
Trump Jr. currently serves as executive vice president of development and acquisitions for the company.

Trump’s second-oldest son, Eric, also serves as an executive vice president at the company. In his bio on the Trump Organization website, Eric is listed as spearheading the company’s golf portfolio.

Sorial, whom BuzzFeed once labeled Trump’s “right-hand man,” serves as an executive vice president and counsel at the Trump Organization.
Upon Trump taking office, the Trump Organization tapped Sorial to be chief compliance counsel for any conflicts of interest that arise for the president involving the business. Sorial worked closely with the Trump University project, threatening to sue the Better Business Bureau over the C- score it gave the president’s former education platform.
