Senior communications adviser Hope Hicks will likely take on the role of White House communications director, according to two sources inside the White House and one outside.
Discussions are in the final stages, the sources said.
Earlier this month, a White House official told CNN there were internal discussions that Stephen Miller, a senior adviser on policy, could be considered for an elevated communications role in addition to his current position.
The role of communications director has been vacant since Anthony Scaramucci was ousted from the position shortly after John Kelly took over as chief of staff last month.
