PEIMA Jobs 2026 – Quick Facts

The Four Posts in Detail

What PEIMA Does — and Why Data Roles Matter Here

PEIMA is an autonomous body under Punjab’s School Education Department, set up to design and manage reform initiatives in the province’s education sector, largely through public-private partnerships. Its work covers school improvement, monitoring, and education service delivery across Punjab — all of which generate large amounts of data on enrolment, attendance, learning outcomes, school performance and programme spending. That is where these two data posts fit. The Data Analyst will turn that kind of operational data into findings decision-makers can use, while the Data Engineer will build and maintain the pipelines and structures that make the data reliable and usable in the first place. For data professionals who want their work to affect public schools rather than dashboards for advertisers, this is a meaningful setting — and the Rs 350,000 monthly package is well above typical public-sector contract pay for these titles.

The two Assistant Director posts support the same mission from the programme side. The Assistant Director (Program) works on programme design and delivery, and the Assistant Director (M&E) works on monitoring and evaluation — frameworks, indicators, data systems and third-party verification of results. Together, the four posts form a small, focused team: two people to build and analyse the data, and two people to run and measure the programmes that data describes.

Experience Required

• Data Analyst and Data Engineer: at least five years of relevant post-qualification experience.
• Assistant Director (Program) and Assistant Director (M&E): at least three years of verifiable relevant experience.
• All four posts are contract appointments with lump-sum monthly pay packages — not permanent civil service posts.
• Exact post-wise duties are given in the full advertisement on the Punjab Job Portal; check the listing for your post before applying, because the summary table does not carry the full duty descriptions.

Important Dates

How to Apply

• Visit the official Punjab Job Portal at jobs.punjab.gov.pk and find the PEIMA advertisement.
• Generate your challan form from the official PEIMA challan page and deposit the non-refundable Rs 3,000 processing fee for each post you apply for.
• Upload proof of fee payment while submitting your online form.
• Complete the online application before 20 November 2026.
• Applications sent by hand, email or courier will not be considered — online only.
• Candidates currently working in government departments must apply through the proper channel with a valid NOC.

A Note on the Rs 3,000 Fee — Read This Carefully

This site’s usual fraud warning says genuine employers never charge for a job. PEIMA’s advertisement is an exception you should understand clearly: the Rs 3,000 is an official application processing fee, paid only by generating a challan from PEIMA’s own challan page and depositing it through the official route, with the proof uploaded to your online application. Never pay this fee — or any fee — to an individual, an agent, a WhatsApp number or a personal bank account. If anyone asks you for money outside the official challan process, or promises you this job in return for payment, that is fraud, not PEIMA.

Documents Checklist

• Degree(s) and transcripts matching your post’s qualification
• Experience certificates showing the required years (5+ for data posts, 3+ for Assistant Director posts)
• CNIC and a recent photograph
• Proof of the Rs 3,000 challan fee payment, uploaded with the online form
• NOC, if you are currently a government employee

Why Apply for PEIMA Jobs 2026

Two things make this round stand out. First, the pay: Rs 350,000 a month for a Data Analyst or Data Engineer in a Punjab government body is a serious package, and Rs 225,000 for Assistant Director posts is competitive too. Second, the timing: the advertisement is dated today, 4 November, which means early applicants have the full window to prepare a careful application rather than rushing against a deadline discovered late.

PEIMA’s office address for correspondence is: Director (HR & Admin), Punjab Education Initiatives Management Authority, 50 Babar Block, New Garden Town, Lahore. Contact: +92 42 99232040.

Fraud warning: Never pay any individual or agent for a job, an interview or an offer letter, and never share your CNIC, bank details or passwords with strangers. The only genuine payment in this recruitment is the official Rs 3,000 challan fee paid through PEIMA’s own challan process and uploaded with your online application. Apply only through the Punjab Job Portal.
