M&E Specialist

About This Job

The Ministry of Federal Education and Professional Training, Government of Pakistan, has announced a contract-based opening for the position of M&E (Monitoring & Evaluation) Specialist at PPS-10, advertised through the National Jobs Portal (NJP). The role is based in Islamabad and carries a single vacancy. The position is aimed at strengthening the Ministry's capacity to track, monitor and evaluate the progress and outcomes of its programs and projects, a function that has become increasingly important for federal ministries managing donor-funded and PSDP initiatives. As a contract position on the Project Pay Scale, the appointment will be governed by the terms applicable to project-based federal hires rather than regular BPS service rules.

Eligibility for the post is built around a combination of academic qualification and hands-on field experience. Candidates need a Master's degree, or a 16-year Bachelor's (Hons) qualification, in a discipline relevant to monitoring, evaluation, development studies, social sciences, or a closely related field, obtained from an HEC-recognized university or an equivalent foreign institution. On the experience side, the Ministry is looking for professionals who have accumulated a full decade of post-qualification, hands-on experience directly tied to M&E work, such as designing monitoring frameworks, tracking project indicators, conducting evaluations, and preparing progress reports for public-sector or donor-funded programs. Notably, the advertisement sets a minimum age requirement of 35 years for applicants but does not mention any upper age limit, so candidates meeting the experience threshold should not assume they are excluded on account of age and are encouraged to verify current eligibility directly on the portal. The designated test city for this recruitment is Islamabad.

Interested and eligible candidates must apply online through the National Jobs Portal (njp.gov.pk), where the vacancy is listed under the Ministry of Federal Education and Professional Training. Applicants who do not already have an NJP account will need to register before they can log in and submit their application, along with the required educational and experience documentation, through the portal's online system. The advertisement was posted on 16 July 2026 and the application window closes on 31 July 2026, so candidates should not wait until the last moment given potential portal traffic and document-verification steps. Given the limited single-post nature of this hiring and the ten-year experience bar, qualified monitoring and evaluation professionals working in the federal or donor-project space are strongly encouraged to review the complete job description on NJP and submit their application well before the deadline.
