Read the T2 policy guidance para 198 and onwards to see under what cuircumstrances would a change of employment application be necessary.
If your new role is in the same SOC code, then you don't need a new visa, but if not, this will be classified as a change of employment which requires a new visa application. Not sure what you mean by same company but different legal entity.
If you don't require a new visa, still let HR inform ukba via sms of this change in role. see below reply I received from ukba;
Thank you for your enquiry which has been passed to me for response. If, at the time of applying for settlement, your job title differs from that stated on your original COS application then providing your sponsor has advised us of the change and as long as it is in the same SOC code and it isn’t too significant a change then this should not be an issue.
I hope this answers your question, should you require anything further then let us know
