Senior Registrar (Paeds Cardiac Critical Care / Emergency Services)

About This Job

The National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases (NICVD), Pakistan's premier public-sector cardiac care hospital located on Rafiqui (H.J.) Shaheed Road in Karachi, has announced career opportunities across fifteen clinical and support positions on a contract basis, among them the post of Senior Registrar (Paeds Cardiac Critical Care / Emergency Services). This registrar-level post supports the paediatric cardiac critical care and emergency services team under specialist supervision. The advertisement does not state a fixed number of vacancies for this particular position, and the post is reserved for candidates under the Sindh regional/provincial quota. Interested and eligible candidates across the province are invited to apply before the advertisement's closing date of October 11, 2026, making this a timely opportunity for professionals in the relevant field to join one of the country's leading cardiac institutions. This position forms part of NICVD Karachi's broader September 2026 staffing drive, which together covers fifteen distinct clinical, technical, and administrative roles across the institute.

Applicants for this post must hold an FCPS in Paediatric Medicine along with either three years of fellowship training in Paediatric Cardiology or two years of fellowship training in Paediatric Critical Care or Paediatric Emergency Medicine, in line with PM&DC rules and regulations, along with prior paediatric critical care experience, which will be given preference. Candidates must not exceed 35 years of age as reckoned on the closing date of the advertisement, with a further age relaxation of up to five years available under the government's standing age-relaxation policy notified vide SORI(SGA&CS)5-108/2024. The post is open to applicants of either gender who hold a Sindh domicile, and candidates already employed in government or semi-government departments are required to route their application through the proper channel with the consent of their current employer. NICVD's advertisement further states that applicants must possess the complete required qualification and experience as of the closing date, and only shortlisted candidates will subsequently be called for a test or interview, as applicable, with no travelling or daily allowance admissible for attending either.

Eligible and interested candidates should submit their application for the Senior Registrar (Paeds Cardiac Critical Care / Emergency Services) post online through NICVD's own careers portal at www.nicvd.org/careers; the advertisement does not mention any application or test fee for this route. This differs from two of the other fourteen posts in the same advertisement (Staff Nurse and Trainee Staff Nurse), which are instead processed through the National Testing Service. Applications must reach NICVD no later than October 11, 2026, after which no submission will be entertained, and management reserves the right to accept or reject any application without assigning a reason. NICVD, which describes itself as an equal-opportunity employer, advises applicants to complete the online submission well ahead of the deadline given the number of positions advertised in this recruitment round.
