About This Job

The Punjab Public Service Commission (PPSC) is inviting online applications for the post of Veterinary Officer (covering Health, Dairy, Research, PVTV-ABAD, Production, and Livestock Production Officer roles), to be filled under the Livestock & Dairy Development Department's Extension Wing (Animal Health Cadre). Advertised under Case No. 03-RK/2026 as part of PPSC's Advertisement No. 10/2026, published in newspapers on 17 September 2026, this recruitment covers a substantial 28 vacancies on a BS-17 pay scale, offered on a contract basis for a period of 5 years. Of these, seats are distributed as 26 Open Merit, 1 Special Person Quota, and 1 Minority Quota, under the Commission's standard quota system, with successful candidates posted anywhere across Punjab. This is a significant opportunity for veterinary graduates seeking a long-term career within the province's animal health and dairy-development infrastructure.

Candidates must hold a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) degree from a recognized university and must also hold a valid registration with the Pakistan Veterinary Medical Council (PVMC). The Council's registration must remain valid up to the closing date of the advertised post; candidates whose registration has expired may still apply provided they furnish proof of having applied for its renewal on or before the closing date. The prescribed age bracket begins at a minimum of 21 years, rising to a maximum of 35 years for male applicants (21 to 30 plus a 5-year relaxation) and 38 years for female applicants (21 to 30 plus an 8-year relaxation); the age and sex of transgender candidates will be determined from the particulars on their CNIC. The post is open to male, female, and transgender candidates domiciled in Punjab. Merit will be determined through a single written test — a one-paper MCQ examination of 100 marks and 90 minutes' duration, with all questions drawn from the DVM curriculum (100% weightage).

Interested and eligible veterinarians must apply strictly online through PPSC's official portal at www.ppsc.gop.pk, selecting Advertisement No. 10/2026 and Case No. 03-RK/2026 for this post before the closing date. The 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 or receipt must be retained for record and verification purposes. Applicants should keep scanned copies of their CNIC, DVM degree, PVMC registration certificate (or renewal-application proof), domicile certificate, and a recent passport-size photograph ready before starting the online form. As with all PPSC advertisements, incomplete or late applications will not be entertained, and any variation in the number of posts after advertisement will not require candidates to submit a fresh application. The last date for submission of online applications is 05 October 2026.
