Research Analyst

About This Job

The Punjab Environment Protection Department has advertised one position of Research Analyst under its Lahore Air Improvement Framework (LAIF) project, a PPS-08 contract role focused on analysing vehicular emissions data collected through Remote Sensing Device (RSD) and Portable Emissions Measurement System (PEMS) technologies deployed across Lahore. The position is designed for a data-driven environmental professional who can translate raw emissions readings into actionable insight for regulatory enforcement, making it a good fit for someone interested in applying technical analysis skills to a real-world urban air quality problem.

The age limit for applicants is set between 27 and 40 years, and the post is open to both men and women meeting the domicile requirements applicable to Punjab government project positions. Core duties include analysing emissions trends against Punjab Environmental Quality Standards (PEQS), identifying high-emitting vehicle categories and corridor-level pollution patterns, supporting PEMS-based validation and quality assurance/quality control review, and preparing evidence-based analytical reports and policy notes to guide the project's ongoing operations and future scale-up.
