Research Analyst

About This Job

The Climate Finance Unit of the Planning & Development Board, Government of Punjab is recruiting six Research Analysts on a contract basis to support administrative and project coordination functions across its climate finance programme. The role is intended to assist with day-to-day project management tasks, research support, and coordination activities linked to the unit's wider portfolio of climate and environmental initiatives, working under the broader direction of the Head (CFU) and the unit's technical specialists. All six posts are listed against the province-wide posting location of All Punjab, and the positions are open to candidates of both genders who meet the standard domicile requirement applied across Punjab government recruitment. This is the most junior grade among the CFU vacancies, sitting at PPS 9 with a monthly salary range of up to PKR 400,000.

Eligible applicants must hold a Master's degree in Project Management, Environmental Science, Environmental Engineering, Agriculture Sciences, Transport Engineering, Water Resource Management, or Business Administration, reflecting the broad, multi-disciplinary scope of the research and coordination work involved. A minimum of 5 years of experience in an administrative or project coordination role is required, with the source listing expressing a preference for candidates who have worked previously within a climate finance, environmental, or wider development context. The applicable age bracket for this post is 30 to 50 years, and with six positions available, the recruitment offers a comparatively larger number of opportunities within the CFU compared to its single-post specialist roles. The wide range of accepted academic backgrounds suggests the unit is seeking generalist project support staff rather than narrow technical specialists for these seats.

Candidates should apply online through the official Punjab Job Portal at jobs.punjab.gov.pk before the closing date of August 13, 2026. No application fee is mentioned in connection with this vacancy on the source page. Applicants are advised to open the dedicated Research Analyst job detail listing on the portal, prepare their academic qualification documents and evidence of relevant coordination experience, and ensure their application is submitted well before the deadline given that six seats will be filled from the applicant pool. Given the volume of vacancies, applicants should expect a competitive shortlisting process based on the strength of their coordination background.
