Bannon is the newly installed campaign CEO, while Conway, who first joined Trump's team in July, has been promoted to campaign manager.
The Wall Street Journal first reported the campaign shakeup, which has been confirmed by the Washington Post and the New York Times.
"I want to win," Trump told the WSJ. "That's why I'm bringing on fantastic people who know how to win and love to win."
Campaign chairman Paul Manafort will keep his title, but his "status is diminished," according to Washington Post reporter Robert Costa.
Trump has had a "gnawing agitation" and "felt 'boxed in'" for weeks, Costa reports.
Trump's poll numbers have significantly trailed behind rival Hillary Clinton's in recent weeks, both in national polling and in key battleground states.
