Deputy Director (Financial Analyst)

About This Job

The Ministry of Railways has advertised one contract position for Deputy Director (Financial Analyst) at PPS-9 on the National Jobs Portal. The listing was posted on 16 October 2026 and applications close on 30 October 2026. The post focuses on the financial analysis of Pakistan Railways (PR) and its development initiatives. The Deputy Director will build financial models of PR and its development schemes, carry out scenario analysis, and work out the cost of operations by setting standard costs and collecting operational data. The officer will also assess PR's financial position by comparing actual results against plans and forecasts, which puts the role at the centre of how the railway tracks its costs and performance and decides where to improve. The job is offered on the PPS-9 project pay grade rather than a regular BPS scale, and while the listing confirms the grade and the contract basis, it does not state a specific monthly salary figure.

The portal lists four acceptable qualifications for this job: Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA), Chartered Accountancy (CA), MS Economics or MS (Finance). Candidates need at least seven years of experience and must be no older than 45. The listing sets no gender or domicile restriction, so eligible candidates from across Pakistan may apply. Other duties include guiding the cost analysis process by establishing and enforcing policies and procedures, providing trends and forecasts, explaining processes and techniques and recommending actions; recommending initiatives that would improve PR's financial indicators; and maintaining databases of cost items and PR performance data. The job description also covers any other tasks assigned by the competent authority. Chartered and certified accountants, finance postgraduates and economists with experience in financial modelling, costing, budgeting or performance analysis, particularly in transport, utilities or other large public-sector enterprises, are the natural audience for this vacancy. Because the position works closely with operational data, the ability to turn numbers into practical recommendations for management will be central to the role.

Applications are accepted online through the National Jobs Portal. Applicants log in or register with a PAK-ID verified account, open the Deputy Director (Financial Analyst) listing, click "Login to Apply", and complete and submit the application form before 30 October 2026.

The application window is only two weeks long, so qualified candidates should prepare their documents and submit their applications early rather than leaving it until the closing date.
