The executive who helped guide Goldman Sachs Group Inc.’s embrace of Main Street is giving up his post in a management shuffle at the consumer unit.

Harit Talwar, the face of Goldman’s five-year-old dive into mom and pop banking, will step aside, according to people with knowledge of the matter. Omer Ismail will take over as the new global consumer head, the people said, asking not to be identified because the information isn’t yet public.
