Do Not Confuse This With the Closed 2-Post PMA Ad
PMA advertised a different set of posts a few weeks earlier — same portal, fee and bank account. That ad (Business Recorder, 22 October 2026, IPL-11198) was for just two Assistant Director (Electrical & Mechanical) posts, last date 8 November 2026 — now closed. This article covers only the new 10-post ad (IPL-11792), last date 23 November 2026.
Post-Wise Vacancies: All 10 Posts
The two senior posts are single seats in Lahore and Rawalpindi. The eight Field Inspector seats sit on transit corridors and need regular travel; PMA may post inspectors at any relevant duty station as operations require.
| # | Post | Posts | Max Age | Duty Station |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Director Contracts Management | 1 | 45 years | Lahore |
| 2 | Assistant Director Mechanical | 1 | 40 years | Rawalpindi |
| 3 | Field Inspector (General/Engineering) | 5 | 35 years | Lahore–Gujranwala 1, Lahore–Faisalabad 2, Rawalpindi–Murree 1, Rawalpindi–Sargodha 1 |

| Total | 10 |
Who Can Apply: Eligibility for Each Post
All degrees must be from an HEC-recognised institution. Check yourself against the right row before paying — the fee is non-refundable even if you are ineligible.
Director Contracts Management (Lahore, up to 45 years): Bachelor’s or Master’s (16 years of education) in Law, Contract Management, Engineering, Business Administration or a related field, with 10 years of relevant experience in contract administration on infrastructure projects, plus knowledge of FIDIC conditions, public procurement and contract law.
Assistant Director Mechanical (Rawalpindi, up to 40 years): Bachelor’s or Master’s in Mechanical Engineering (16 years of education), with 5 years of relevant professional experience.
Field Inspector (General/Engineering) (5 posts, up to 35 years): Four-year graduation or Master’s (16 years of education); an Engineering degree and relevant experience are preferred, with no minimum experience fixed. Computer literacy and a basic understanding of data are mandatory.
Field Inspector (Electrical) (3 posts, up to 35 years): Either a B.Tech in Electrical with 1 year of relevant experience, or a DAE in Electrical with 2 years of relevant experience. Computer literacy and basic data understanding are mandatory.
Age relaxation: General age relaxation applies under government rules — 5 years for men and 5+3 years for women. Confirm the exact relaxation on the Punjab Job Portal.
Experience that does not count: Part-time work, teaching, honorary work, self-employment, apprenticeships and internships are excluded — count only full-time relevant experience.
Application Fee: Rs 900 Per Post
Pay a non-refundable Rs 900 for each post, before or on the closing date, only through a Bank of Punjab deposit slip into Account No. 6580045522200045 (Masstransit Authority NFR Fund Account), and upload a scanned copy of the receipt with your application. Applications without the fee will not be considered, and postal orders or bank drafts are not accepted. Each post needs a separate application and fee — one challan cannot cover two applications.
What About the Salary?
Honestly: the advertisement prints no salary figures — no pay scale, monthly package or allowances. This article will not invent any. Salary ranges on jobs websites are those sites’ own estimates, not official figures. Confirm pay terms with the authority at the appointment stage.
How to Apply: Step-by-Step
Applications are online only at https://jobs.punjab.gov.pk/ — email, hand-delivered and courier applications will not be entertained. Apply before 23 November 2026:
Step 1 — Open the Punjab Job Portal. Go to https://jobs.punjab.gov.pk/ and log in or create an account.
Step 2 — Find the PMA advertisement. Search for the Punjab Masstransit Authority vacancies — the 10-post ad (Daily Express, 8 November 2026, IPL-11792), not the closed 2-post Assistant Director (E&M) ad.
Step 3 — Review the eligibility criteria. Check the education, experience and age requirements for your post (detailed criteria also on pma.punjab.gov.pk). Confirm your degree field, experience and age — including relaxation — before paying: the fee is non-refundable.
Step 4 — Prepare your documents. Keep ready your CNIC, degrees and transcripts, and experience certificates. Transcripts must be uploaded with degrees and certificates, and uploaded documents are final.
Step 5 — Pay the Rs 900 fee. Deposit Rs 900 per post through a Bank of Punjab deposit slip into Account No. 6580045522200045 (Masstransit Authority NFR Fund Account) before or on the closing date, and keep the original receipt safe.
Step 6 — Upload the receipt and complete the form. Fill in the application accurately and upload your documents with a scanned copy of the fee receipt. Review everything before submitting — incomplete or incorrect applications are disqualified without notice, and fake documents lead to disqualification.
Step 7 — Submit before 23 November 2026 and keep a copy. Submit well before the closing date — the portal slows down on the last day. Save or print the submitted application and fee receipt.
Only shortlisted candidates will be called for interview, and no TA/DA will be given. Government employees must apply through the proper channel and submit a No Objection Certificate (NOC) at the interview. Government-approved quotas, where applicable, will be observed.
Documents Checklist
- Valid CNIC
- Degrees and transcripts (both — transcripts are mandatory)
- Relevant experience certificates
- Scanned copy of the Rs 900 Bank of Punjab fee receipt
- NOC — only if already in government service (at the interview)
- HEC equivalence certificate — only for a foreign degree
- Original documents, experience letters, fee receipt and driving licence — at the interview
- After passing the interview: HEC-verified degree copies, experience letters, fresh police character verification and medical fitness certificate
Pro Tips Before You Apply
- Check which ad you are applying for. The closed 2-post ad and this live 10-post ad share the same portal, fee and bank account — confirm IPL-11792 first.
- Pay only after confirming eligibility. Rs 900 per post is non-refundable; two posts means Rs 1,800 and two separate applications.
- Upload transcripts, not just degrees. They are mandatory and uploaded documents are final.
- Do not wait for the last day. The deadline is 23 November 2026.
Contact and Helpline
For portal problems, contact Punjab Job Portal support at [email protected] or +92 42 35880062, Ext. 1222 — raise issues early, as PMA will not be responsible for technical problems on the portal. Detailed criteria are also on pma.punjab.gov.pk.
