About the role

Customs and Border Protection in Washington, DC, seeks an Executive Director, Operations Directorate, to oversee national trade initiatives and intelligence-driven trade operations, directing resources and systems to implement a multi-year strategic plan. You will oversee threat assessment, civil investigations, and trade data analysis to measure the economic impact of trade disruptions, and help shape policies and program objectives across the agency and partners.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
