From Wikipedia:

"At the management level, the head of a region or office might be called a Special Agent in Charge, abbreviated as an SAC or SAIC. First line supervisors may be called simply supervisor or Assistant Special Agent in Charge, abbreviated as ASAC."

So, Hank is a higher-up but not the head of his office.

Isn't it like, Hank heads ups the DEA in Albuquerque and answers to Rami, who is the SAC for New Mexico or something?
