National Bank of Pakistan Branch Manager Jobs 2026 – Aitemaad Islamic Banking

The National Bank of Pakistan has advertised a Branch Manager position at AVP grade for its Aitemaad Islamic Banking business. This is a senior branch leadership role, not a front-desk job: the successful candidate will run an entire branch, lead its staff, grow its Islamic banking business and answer for its targets, audits and Shariah compliance. The employment is on a three-year contract that may be renewed at the bank’s discretion.

Last date to apply: 9 November 2026 (Expected). The newspaper advertisement, published in Daily The News on 26 October 2026, does not print a fixed closing date. It says applications must be submitted within 10 working days of publication, which works out to around 9 November 2026. Confirm the exact closing date on the NBP recruitment portal before you apply, and apply early to be safe.

Important Dates

Places of Posting

The advertisement lists five posting locations across the country. The bank does not say whether you can choose your location or how posts are divided between the sites, so state your location preference clearly in your application:

• Gharo, District Thatta, Sindh
• Islamabad
• Kasur, Punjab
• Lahore, Punjab
• Sadda, District Kurram, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa

Four of the five locations are in Punjab, Islamabad and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and only Gharo is in Sindh. Candidates willing to serve in more than one location should say so, because flexibility may help at the shortlisting stage.

Eligibility Criteria

Education: A minimum of graduation or equivalent from a local or international university or college recognised by the Higher Education Commission of Pakistan. A Commerce graduation, or an Islamic banking certification, degree or diploma, will be preferred.

Experience: A minimum of 6 years in branch banking, including at least 3 years as a Branch Manager, preferably in Islamic banking. This is a hard bar: the bank will shortlist only candidates who strictly meet the basic eligibility criteria.

Skills the advertisement asks for: sound knowledge of branch banking operations and Islamic banking products; knowledge of compliance rules including anti-money laundering, countering the financing of terrorism and State Bank prudential regulations; good business sense and experience dealing with audit issues; strong analytical, leadership and branch management skills; outstanding customer service skills; and excellent written and spoken communication with good interpersonal skills.

What the Branch Manager Will Do

• Take overall responsibility for branch affairs, including supervision, business development and meeting targets for marketing Islamic banking products
• Meet existing and new customers to market deposits, finances, retail banking products, asset management, remittances and government business
• Deliver the branch’s annual business plan and prepare periodic performance reports
• Set targets for branch staff and track their productivity
• Keep the attrition of top customers to a minimum and monitor cross-selling of liability and asset products
• Prevent fraud and forgery through proper internal controls together with the Branch Operations Manager
• Make sure banking laws, regulations and standard procedures, including Shariah compliance, are followed
• Monitor the credit portfolio of the branch, where applicable
• Maintain high customer service standards and handle complaints within the required turnaround time
• Review branch audit and performance reports and make sure all observations are addressed

Why Apply for NBP Aitemaad Branch Manager Jobs

The National Bank of Pakistan is the country’s largest public-sector bank, and Aitemaad is its dedicated Islamic banking brand, which continues to grow as demand for Shariah-compliant banking rises. An AVP-grade branch manager post puts you in charge of a full branch with a regional reporting line, which is a strong step for any branch banking professional. The three-year contract comes with a compensation package and other benefits under the bank’s policy, and renewal depends on performance. For bankers with Islamic banking experience, this is a rare senior opening that matches that specialisation directly. Note that this is a different recruitment from the NBP Teller OG-III round already covered on NIAMS Jobs — the two ads have different posts, portals and deadlines.

Documents Checklist

• Updated CV showing branch banking experience year by year, with branch manager tenure clearly stated
• Degree and transcripts (HEC-recognised)
• Islamic banking certification, degree or diploma, if held
• CNIC copy
• Experience letters from previous banks, especially proof of branch manager service
• Recent passport-size photographs

How to Apply

• Visit the NBP recruitment portal at nbp.rozeegpt.ai.
• Find the Branch Manager (AVP) Aitemaad Islamic Banking advertisement.
• Fill in the online application with correct education and experience details.
• State your posting location preference among Gharo, Islamabad, Kasur, Lahore and Sadda.
• Submit within 10 working days of the 26 October publication — aim for 9 November 2026 at the latest, and earlier if possible.
• Wait for shortlisting: only candidates who strictly meet the criteria will be invited for panel interviews.

No TA/DA is admissible for the interview. Applications received after the due date will not be considered in any case. The bank states it is an equal opportunity employer and welcomes applications from all qualified individuals regardless of gender, religion or disability.

Fraud Warning

Never pay anyone who claims they can get you selected. The National Bank of Pakistan does not charge any fee for this application, and its only official route is the nbp.rozeegpt.ai portal. Anyone asking for money, a “processing fee” or a bribe is running a scam. NIAMS Jobs never charges job seekers for any listing.
