The journey toward a safer, more just future transcends borders. On this Pan American Day, the FBI salutes our global partners for their collaboration in defending freedom and justice. The FBI’s International Operations Division, which operates across North, Central, and South America, faces some of the world’s most pressing challenges—combating drug cartels, transnational gangs, and criminal threats that transcend borders and risk the safety of Americans at home and abroad. In the pursuit of justice, the Bureau emphasizes the power of enduring partnerships, not only within and across U.S. federal agencies but also with our international allies. As a special agent at the FBI, you have the unique opportunity to go global, with chances to be stationed at international legal attachés—or legats—like Brazil, Argentina, Barbados, Canada, and more. Surrounded by subject matter experts, you become an integral part of disrupting and dismantling transnational criminal networks. Together with our partners, we stand side-by-side to defend against dangerous criminal activity, illicit trafficking, and the ever-present threat of terrorism. Set yourself apart on the international stage, where you can help the FBI protect American communities from near or far. https://ow.ly/m14G50R8xKJ #FBI #FBIJobs #Hiring #PanAmericanDay #SpecialAgent #WorkAbroad #Partnership #NorthAmerica #SouthAmerica #International
