Cabinet Division Jobs 2026 – Stenotypist & Staff Car Driver (Balochistan Quota), 7 Posts

The Cabinet Division of the Government of Pakistan has opened seven new posts for candidates who hold a Balochistan domicile. These posts have been announced under the federal government’s Balochistan Initiative, a special recruitment drive that reserves federal vacancies for people from Balochistan. There are two posts on offer: Stenotypist in BPS-14 and Staff Car Driver in BPS-04. Both applications must be submitted online through the National Job Portal (NJP), and the last date to apply is 10 November 2026.

Cabinet Division Jobs 2026 – Vacancy Details

The Cabinet Division is one of the most important offices of the federal government. It supports the Prime Minister’s Office and the federal cabinet, and it manages coordination between ministries.

The seven vacancies are split as follows:

• Stenotypist (BPS-14) — 2 posts, advertised under PID (I) 3765/26
• Staff Car Driver (BPS-04) — 5 posts, advertised under PID (I) 3766/26

Both posts are reserved for candidates with a valid Balochistan domicile.

Stenotypist (BPS-14) – Eligibility Criteria

The Stenotypist is an office support post. A stenotypist takes dictation in shorthand, types official letters and notes, and helps officers keep their daily work moving.

To apply for the Stenotypist post, you should meet these conditions:

• Intermediate qualification (FA/FSc or equivalent) from a recognized board.
• Shorthand speed of 80 words per minute.
• Typing speed of 40 words per minute.
• Working knowledge of computers.
• Valid Balochistan domicile.
• Maximum age of 30 years, with relaxation as per government rules.

Shorthand and typing are the heart of this post. Candidates are usually tested on both skills before the interview.

Staff Car Driver (BPS-04) – Eligibility Criteria

The Staff Car Driver drives official vehicles for the Cabinet Division in Islamabad. Drivers in federal offices work on a duty roster and must keep their vehicle clean and ready at all times.

• A valid driving licence is essential for this post.
• Good knowledge of traffic rules and road safety.
• Valid Balochistan domicile.
• Age limit of 30 to 35 years as reported in the public summaries — please confirm the exact age limit in the NJP advertisement, because one summary flags this figure for confirmation.

The public summaries for this round do not spell out the exact education requirement for the driver post, so read the NJP listing carefully before you submit your form. Do not guess your eligibility — the listing itself is the final word.

Why Apply for a Cabinet Division Job?

A federal government post in Islamabad offers stability that private jobs rarely match. Salaries follow the Basic Pay Scale with regular increments, and employees receive medical coverage and pension benefits. For candidates from Balochistan, this round is especially valuable because the competition is limited to Balochistan-domiciled applicants.

Documents You May Need

Keep these ready before you start the online form, so you do not get stuck halfway:

• Computerized National Identity Card (CNIC)
• Balochistan domicile certificate
• Educational certificates and degrees
• Valid driving licence (for the driver post)
• Recent passport-size photograph
• Experience certificates, if any
• NOC from your current department, if you are already in government service

Do not send any documents by post at this stage. The NJP application is online, and documents are normally checked only when you are shortlisted.
