What the program is about
The ad explains why the post exists. The Government of Punjab plans to develop cities with better urban infrastructure, including efficient sewerage and storm water drainage systems. The program aims to improve how the Water and Sanitation Agencies (WASAs) work, with a focus on managing and improving urban infrastructure.
A full sewerage and storm water drainage system is planned for 15 cities of Punjab. To run the program professionally, keep quality standards and procure contractors properly, a Project Management Unit is being set up. The IT Expert will be part of this unit. The ad does not list the IT Expert’s duties, so read the listing and expect general IT support for a project office.
Who can apply
The ad prints these requirements:
- Education: 16 years of education in IT, Computer Science or Software Development from an HEC recognized institute
- Experience: “Up to 03 years of post-qualification relevant experience” (exact words of the ad)
- Age: the maximum age limit is 40 years
The Punjab Jobs Portal listing adds a few details:
- Degree level: Masters or Bachelors (Hons), 16 years of education
- Degree areas: Computer Engineering or Sciences, Information Technology, Software Engineering
- Experience: 3 years
- Age range: 18 to 40 years
- Gender: both men and women can apply
- Domicile: the listing says domicile is required for this position
The ad’s wording on experience is unusual. “Up to 03 years” can be read as a ceiling, while the portal shows 3 years as the requirement. If your experience is well below or well above 3 years, keep your profile honest and let the shortlisting team decide.
The ad does not mention any age relaxation. If you are already in a public sector job, you must apply through proper channel with an NOC from your department or organization.
Pay scale and job type
The ad lists the post as IT Expert (PPS-08). It does not print a salary. It says the remuneration “is determined based on prevailing market rates, commensurate with the experience and qualifications”. The portal listing also shows no salary figure, so the exact pay is not specified in the ad.
The appointment is on a contractual basis for the project period of one (01) year, extendable on satisfactory performance till the closure of the project. The portal shows the employment status as contract.
Other points from the ad:
- The Competent Authority may increase, decrease or reject the position without giving any reason.
- No TA/DA will be paid for the test or interview.

If the portal says your profile does not match, fill in any empty education or experience fields and try again. Our Punjab Job Portal guide explains each screen step by step.
Documents you need
The ad does not give a document list. Based on its rules and the portal listing, keep these ready:
- CNIC
- Domicile certificate, because the portal listing says domicile is required. If you don’t have one, read our guide to the Punjab domicile online.
- Degree and transcripts for your 16 years of education, from an HEC recognized institute
- Experience letters showing your post-qualification work in IT
- NOC from your department, if you are in a public sector organization
- An updated CV, in case you are shortlisted
Application fee
Application fee: not specified in the ad. Registering and applying on the Punjab Jobs Portal is free. Do not pay anyone to “submit” or “confirm” your application.
Selection process
The ad says only shortlisted candidates will be called for a test or interview. It does not name a test body, test pattern or syllabus. Shortlisting depends on your portal profile, so make your degree and experience entries complete and accurate.
Because this is an IT role in a project office for sewerage and drainage works, it helps to revise practical topics such as networks, hardware and software support, databases, web portals, data reporting and office tools. This is general advice; the ad itself gives no syllabus. Keep your phone and email active after the last date.
