Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) Director Kathy Kraninger recently named Brian Johnson to be the bureau’s new deputy director, allowing him to drop the term “acting” from a title he has held since July 2018. The bureau also announced multiple changes within its executive leadership ranks.
Johnson joined the CFPB in December 2017 as a political appointee, serving as senior advisor to former acting director Mick Mulvaney and was named principal policy director in April 2018. His role at the CFPB is the second time Johnson has followed Richard Cordray in a job office.
