Office of the Inspector General, USPS

7 remote or telework-eligible positions · federal agency

The Office of Inspector General for the U.S. Postal Service is the independent oversight body that audits Postal Service programs and investigates fraud, waste and misconduct involving postal employees, contractors and the Postal Service’s finances. It is headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, with field offices across the country, and is separate from the Postal Inspection Service, the Postal Service’s own law enforcement arm.

Recent listings have included special assistant United States attorneys, criminal investigators for the Northeast area field office, an entry level criminal investigator for the Mid-Atlantic area field office and an application services manager.

Applying tip: the OIG is part of the Postal Service, so pay and benefits follow Postal Service systems rather than the General Schedule; read the compensation section rather than assuming GS rules. Criminal investigator positions are law enforcement jobs with a maximum entry age, firearms and physical requirements and a background investigation. Our clearance guide explains how background investigations run, and the legal jobs guide covers attorney positions.
