Cabinet Secretariat, Establishment Division (Main), Government of Pakistan
A single, clearly defined federal opening is live on the National Jobs Portal: the Cabinet Secretariat’s Establishment Division (Main) in Islamabad is filling one Assistant post in BS-15, reserved for candidates holding a Balochistan domicile under the 6% Balochistan quota. The advertisement was published on 1 November 2026, and applications are accepted online only.
Last date to apply: 15 November 2026 (Sunday). Apply through the National Jobs Portal before the day ends.
Cabinet Secretariat Assistant Jobs 2026 — Post Details
The opening is for one Assistant in BS-15, posted in Islamabad at the Cabinet Secretariat, Establishment Division (Main). The Establishment Division is the federal government’s personnel wing — it handles appointments, postings and service matters across ministries — so an Assistant there works on the administrative backbone of the federal government: files, notes, correspondence and record-keeping for senior officers. It is steady, office-based government work, and the BS-15 grade places it above the usual clerical scales. The seat is reserved under the 6% Balochistan quota, which means only candidates holding a valid Balochistan domicile or local certificate can apply for it.
Who Can Apply
Applicants need a bachelor’s degree from a recognised university, plus six weeks of IT training. That short IT training condition is the one detail candidates most often miss, so check your certificates before applying: a degree alone is not enough, and the training must be the six-week course the listing specifies. The listing prints no separate age limit, salary figure or application fee, so this post claims none of those — confirm any such detail on the National Jobs Portal listing itself before you apply.
How the Balochistan Quota Works Here
Federal posts reserved under the Balochistan quota exist because the federal government is running a special drive to fill long-vacant Balochistan seats before 30 November 2026, with recruitment handled locally in Balochistan districts where the advertisement provides for it. For this particular post, the duty station is Islamabad and the application route is the National Jobs Portal, not a walk-in interview. Domicile is the deciding condition: a candidate from any other province cannot apply for this seat, even with the right degree.
Not the Same as the Earlier Cabinet Division Post
Readers who follow federal jobs may remember an earlier Cabinet Division advertisement for seven Balochistan-quota posts — two Stenotypists and five Staff Car Drivers, closing 10 November 2026. This is a different advertisement: a single Assistant post, a different reference number (F.No. 3/1/2023-ADMN-II, PID(I)4011/26), a different closing date, and a different qualification bar. Do not confuse the two, and do not reuse the earlier post’s details when applying for this one.
How to Apply
Apply online only, through the National Jobs Portal at njp.gov.pk. Create or open your account, complete your CV with your Balochistan domicile, degree and six-week IT training certificate, find the Cabinet Secretariat Assistant (BS-15) listing, and submit your application before 15 November 2026. No postal address or email apply route is given for this listing, and no application fee is printed, so do not send documents by post and do not pay anyone who claims to process your application. Keep a screenshot of the submitted form for your own record.
