Security Sub-Inspector

About This Job

WAPDA's Security Directorate, based at G-67, WAPDA House, Lahore, has issued an urgent recruitment notice for security staff needed across the Authority's various projects, including the post of Security Sub-Inspector in BPS-15. This is part of WAPDA's standard practice of drawing its uniformed security cadre from retired Pakistan Army personnel, who bring institutional discipline and prior service experience to the protection of WAPDA's dams, power stations, and administrative facilities nationwide. Selected candidates will be posted at WAPDA formations across the country as required, and employment will initially be offered on a lump-sum-pay, contract basis for three years, extendable subject to satisfactory continuous service; the appointment will not be regularized or made pensionable at any stage under the Government Rules. WAPDA operates hydel power stations, thermal plants, canal networks, and administrative offices spread across every province, and a dependable in-house security cadre staffed by ex-servicemen is central to how the Authority safeguards this dispersed infrastructure.

Eligible applicants must have passed Matriculation (Matric) and must be retired from the Pakistan Army holding the rank of Subedar or Naib Subedar Major, or an equivalent rank from another service. The maximum age limit is 50 years, calculated as on the closing date, with no age relaxation admissible. All shortlisted candidates will be required to undergo a written test and a Physical Endurance Test (PET), and only those who are medically and physically fit will be inducted; no TA/DA is payable for the test or interview process. The advertisement separately notes that a relaxed qualification standard may apply to candidates domiciled in Balochistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, or the erstwhile FATA region who apply for the Security Sergeant and Security Guard posts advertised alongside this one.

Interested candidates must deposit a non-refundable application fee of Rs. 300/- at any National Bank of Pakistan branch via bank challan, in favor of 'DG Finance (B&C) WAPDA', account number PK20NBPA0416003000648112. The application, accompanied by a recent photograph, CNIC, mobile number, discharge/service documents, attested educational certificates, and the bank challan receipt, must be sent to the Security Directorate, WAPDA, G-67, WAPDA House, Lahore. Applications must be received within 10 days of the advertisement's publication; late or incomplete applications will not be entertained. Given WAPDA's regular need for security personnel and the short response window, eligible retired Army personnel are encouraged to prepare their documents and apply without delay, since this urgent-basis recruitment notice, like similar WAPDA security drives in the past, does not leave a long lead time between publication and the closing date.
