Josh Carpenter, director of Birmingham’s Department of Innovation and Economic Opportunity (IEO), is stepping down effective Nov. 30.

Carpenter has been with Mayor Randall Woodfin’s administration for three years. In a note to colleagues and friends late Monday, Carpenter said he’s enjoyed his job “in a place … with a leader we deeply respect and admire, especially at a time when it feels consequential.”

Carpenter did not say what he will do next, only that he will “pursue additional opportunities related to job creation and job growth in Birmingham.”
