Anaesthetist

About This Job

The Punjab Public Service Commission (PPSC) is inviting applications for the post of Anaesthetist, to be filled under the Punjab Auqaf Organization, Auqaf & Religious Affairs Department. Advertised under Case No. 10-RM/2026 as part of PPSC's Advertisement No. 09/2026, published in newspapers on 06 September 2026, this recruitment covers 1 vacancy on a lump-sum monthly package of ₨170,000/month (Lump Sum, Contract), offered on a contract basis for 2 years. The selected candidate(s) will be posted at Data Darbar Hospital, Lahore. This is a genuine opportunity for candidates seeking a stable career within the Punjab Government's civil administration. As one of the province's primary hiring bodies, PPSC recruitment carries the usual benefits associated with government service, including a structured pay package, allowances as admissible, and long-term career progression within the Punjab Auqaf Organization, Auqaf & Religious Affairs Department.

On the qualification front, PPSC requires MBBS or an equivalent qualification recognized by PMDC with FCPS (Anaesthesia) or an equivalent postgraduate qualification. In addition, if no FCPS-qualified candidate is available, candidates holding a Diploma in Anaesthesia (or equivalent) with two years' practical experience before or after post-graduation are considered instead; a valid permanent PMDC/PMC registration certificate issued on or before the closing date is required. The prescribed age bracket runs from a minimum of 26 years, up to a maximum of 50 years for male applicants and 53 years for female applicants, the higher female ceiling reflecting the standard 8-year relaxation granted to women candidates under Punjab Government policy (versus the 5-year relaxation given to men). Transgender candidates are assessed on the basis of the age and sex recorded on their CNIC, and the post is open to male, female, and transgender candidates alike. Domicile eligibility is open to candidates domiciled anywhere in Punjab, and applicants already serving in government departments must obtain a No Objection Certificate (NOC) or Departmental Promotion Committee (DPC) clearance from their current employer before applying, per PPSC's standing instructions. Where foreign or private-institution qualifications and experience are cited, these are only counted if backed by the relevant HEC/QEDC equivalence certificate or, for professional/medical/engineering posts, valid registration with the applicable regulatory council (PMC/PMDC/PEC/PCATP as relevant) that remains valid up to the closing date. Merit will be determined per PPSC's standard test/interview process for this post.

Eligible candidates must apply strictly online through the Commission's official portal at ppsc.gop.pk, selecting Advertisement No. 09/2026 and the relevant Case No. 10-RM/2026 for this post before the closing date of 21 September 2026. The PPSC application fee is payable online only, through 1Link member banks, ATM, mobile/internet banking, JazzCash, EasyPaisa, U Paisa, or participating microfinance banks, and the paid challan/receipt must be retained for record and verification purposes. Applicants should have scanned copies of their CNIC, educational certificates/transcripts, domicile certificate, a recent passport-size photograph, and any experience or registration certificates ready before starting the form, since the online application cannot be saved indefinitely. As with all PPSC advertisements, incomplete or late applications will not be entertained, so candidates should re-check their eligibility against the qualification, age, and domicile conditions before submitting. Any change in the number of posts after advertisement will not require candidates to submit a fresh application, per the Commission's standard policy printed on the advertisement.
