Jobs in Panama

Although getting a job in Panama can be a challenge since the job market is somewhat competitive, it is no secret that Panama is a great country to create an international life in. If you are starting your search for jobs in Panama, and aren’t sure where to literally start your search, check out the three cities below. Each one of these cities offers a range of job opportunities, and each one has distinct attributes to make your time working abroad in Panama an exciting cultural experience.

Bocas Del Toro. With impressive biodiversity and vegetation in juxtaposition with the Caribbean Sea, Bocas Del Toro is a city that provides a tropical climate with some spectacular views. With a low cost of living, Bocas Del Toro is a small town that provides a paramount location for expats to find jobs in Panama.

Panama City is the capital and urban center of Panama, providing the most urban setting available across the (rather small) country. Located at the Pacific entrance of the Panama Canal, Panama City is one of the most valuable cities for global trade. With an impressive skyline and landmarks like the Bridge of the Americas and the historic district Casco Viejo, there is plenty to see in Panama City outside the office. While Panama City is bustling, it is surrounded by rainforest, providing a very special urban experience.

Boquete has the most mountainous scenery of the three major cities in Panama, and an outdoor inspired culture that expats will surely take advantage of in their spare time (or it may even be part of your job description if you are lucky). From the foliage-filled mountains to the dormant volcano (and highest peak in the country), Volcan Baru, there are opportunities for hiking, rafting, and horseback riding at all times of the year in Boquete. With an exceptional climate and a community that welcomes expats with open arms, Boquete is a quaint city that provides an amazing environment for working abroad in Panama.
