Mali (Female) (VC Office, PU)

About This Job

The University of the Punjab in Lahore has advertised one post of Mali (Female) for the office of its Vice Chancellor under Advertisement No. 14/2026. The same notice also covers one Driver and one Cook for that office. The post is daily wages, contingent paid staff work for a period of 89 days, and the wages come from the university's self-supporting, departmental or contingent paid staff budget. It follows the Punjab Government's policy framework for work-charged employees, daily wagers and contingent paid staff, which the university adopted in 2024. It is a short engagement that does not lead to regular appointment, but it suits women in Lahore with gardening experience who want work on the university's large, green Quaid-i-Azam Campus. The campus along the Lahore canal is known for its lawns, gardens and tree-lined roads, and the person selected will help keep the plants and grounds around the administrative offices in good order during the engagement. Women who have worked in nurseries, private gardens or other institutions will find the duties familiar.

The post is reserved for women. No formal education is required, and the advertisement lists the minimum qualification as illiterate, though candidates who have passed Primary will be preferred. Applicants must be Pakistani nationals, and the notice gives no domicile restriction. Every eligibility requirement must be met on or before the closing date. The university will observe government quotas as per policy, may prefer candidates with higher qualifications or more experience, and will call only shortlisted candidates for interview, with no TA/DA paid. Women currently in government service must attach a departmental permission certificate or NOC to the hard copy of their application. An application with incomplete documents or false information will be rejected.

Applications are accepted online only, through the university's non-teaching portal at http://111.68.103.6/nonteaching, from 7 to 21 October 2026, and the portal shuts at 4:00 pm on the last day. A processing fee of Rs. 300 must be paid at any HBL or UBL branch using the challan generated online, since bank drafts, pay orders and cheques are not accepted. A signed hard copy of the online form, with CV, attested documents, a 1x1 photograph and the original fee receipt, must reach the Registrar's office (Administration Branch-II, Admin Block, Room 33) on the Quaid-i-Azam Campus by registered post or courier before the closing date. Hand delivery is not allowed, so applicants should send their papers early to make sure they arrive by 21 October 2026.
