Computer Operator

About This Job

The Office of the Commissioner, Malakand Division, based at Saidu Sharif, Swat, has advertised two posts of Computer Operator (BPS-16) to be filled through a screening test conducted by ETEA, the Educational Testing and Evaluation Agency, on the Division's behalf. Both vacancies are on open merit and fall under a single advertisement, number INF(P)4679/26, that also covers a Junior Scale Stenographer post inserted separately in this system. The Computer Operator will be responsible for routine data entry, document processing and general computer-support duties within the Commissioner's office, supporting day-to-day administrative work across the Division's various wings, as the office continues moving routine record-keeping onto computerised systems rather than relying purely on paper files, and covering the full geographic spread of districts that fall under Malakand Division's administrative umbrella.

Eligible candidates must hold either a BCS or BIT degree from an HEC-recognized university with at least a second division, or a BA/BSc from an HEC-recognized university with at least a second division together with a one-year Diploma in Information Technology from a Board of Technical Education-recognized institute; either qualification route must be paired with a minimum typing speed of 40 words per minute. The age bracket for both posts is 18 to 28 years, and only candidates domiciled in Malakand Division's own districts - Swat, Buner, Shangla, Malakand, Dir Lower, Dir Upper and Chitral - are eligible to apply, reflecting the Division's own recruitment policy of reserving these particular seats for local residents rather than opening them to applicants from the rest of the province, a common practice for divisional-level recruitment across Khyber Pakhtunkhwa's various administrative divisions.

Applications are handled entirely online through ETEA's website rather than through the Commissioner's office directly. Interested candidates should create a profile on www.etea.edu.pk, pay the prescribed test fee through a bank challan, UBL branch visit, or EasyPaisa/agent transaction, and submit the completed form between 15 and 30 September 2026. All further communication, including roll number slips and test scheduling, is sent purely by SMS, so applicants should make sure the mobile number on their form stays active. The full original advertisement, including both this post and the Junior Scale Stenographer vacancy from the same notice, is available to view and download alongside this listing before the 30 September 2026 closing date, and candidates already working in government or semi-government departments should route their application through their existing employer as required by the standard civil-service application procedure.
