Time Inc. has promoted Fortune deputy editor Clifton Leaf to editor in chief of the magazine, replacing Alan Murray, who is upped to president of Fortune as he keeps the chief content officer role he has held since last summer. Meanwhile, Adam Lashinsky, who had been assistant managing editor, is upped to executive editor, reporting to Leaf and taking on oversight of the conference division as part of his expanded duties.

Leaf is the 87 year-old magazine’s 18th editor, and has worked for five of the others in two separate terms at Fortune.
