Two posts only, and both of them carry the same quota label. HEC Jobs 2026, announced by the Higher Education Commission of Pakistan in Dawn on 29 October 2026, invite Pakistani nationals to fill 2 regular positions, and both sit under the Balochistan 6 percent provincial quota. That narrow focus changes how you should read this round. It is not a general HEC hiring drive, it is a small, quota specific round, and the two posts could hardly be more different from each other. One is a commerce graduate post with three years of service experience behind it, and the other is a Matric post built around typing speed and a short IT course.
The Accountant post sits in BPS-16 and asks for a BCom or BBA from a recognised university, plus three years of service experience in the relevant field in any government, semi government, or autonomous body. The Lower Division Clerk post sits in BPS-11 and asks for Matric with a minimum typing speed of 30 words per minute, plus a 3 week Basic IT Training Course including MS Office, conducted by NITB, to be completed within one year of selection. Age limits differ too, with the Accountant band set at 21 to 30 years and the clerk band at 18 to 25 years, and both bands carry 5 years of general age relaxation plus 5 years of additional relaxation for candidates from Balochistan.

Vacant Positions

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Accountant | BPS-16 | 1 | BCom or BBA with 3 years service experience in the relevant field | 21 to 30 years, plus age relaxation |

Eligibility Criteria
Both posts are open to Pakistani nationals with the requisite qualification, experience, domicile and quota, and domicile is the gate here, since both seats fall under the Balochistan quota. Age relaxation is generous on paper, with 5 years of general relaxation for all posts and further relaxation under government rules, plus the additional 5 years for Balochistan candidates named in the ad. Government servants must apply through the proper channel, and experience counted as part time, honorary, apprentice, or internee work will not be considered. Only shortlisted candidates will be called for interview, and at that stage you must present original documents with attested copies of degrees and certificates, your CNIC, and your domicile certificate. Any information found fake or bogus at any stage, even after employment, cancels the candidature and can draw legal action. For more government openings, see the Government Jobs archive on KomviPz.
How to Apply
- Open the National Job Portal at njp.gov.pk and build or update your online profile.
- Find the Higher Education Commission posts and pick the one that matches your qualification and domicile.
- Enter your education, experience, and domicile details exactly as your documents show them, since applications are processed on profile data.
- Check the age relaxation rules for your post before you submit, especially the additional Balochistan relaxation.
- Submit the online application before 10 November 2026, since incomplete or late applications will not be entertained.
- Keep your original documents and attested copies ready for the interview, and do not send any hard copy of your CV or documents, since the ad asks for online applications only.
Important Notes
HEC reserves the right to reject any or all applications without assigning a reason, and to increase or decrease the number of vacancies as required, so the 2 post figure is the advertised position, not a guarantee. Selected candidates can be posted anywhere in Pakistan, which matters if you are applying with one city in mind. No TA or DA will be paid for appearing in the interview. The clerk post carries a condition worth noting in advance, since the selected candidate must undertake and qualify the NITB Basic IT Training Course within one year, so factor that course into your plans if you apply for the clerk seat.
