FPSC Jobs 2026 – Contract-Based Vacancies in Islamabad for a PSDP-Funded Project
The Federal Public Service Commission (FPSC) has thrown open a fresh set of contract-based vacancies at its Islamabad headquarters, and this one's a little different from the usual FPSC listings. It's not a permanent-cadre announcement — it's tied to a PSDP-funded project focused on digitalizing FPSC's in-house processes and automating its examination system. If you've got a background in IT, engineering, project management, or a specialized subject area, there's a real spread of roles here worth reading through properly.
Here's a complete rundown of the posts on offer, the pay structure, and how the application process works
About This Recruitment
FPSC is hiring against these positions purely on a contract basis, for a project funded under the Public Sector Development Programme (PSDP). The initial contract term is one year, extendable on satisfactory performance for another year or until the project is completed — whichever comes first. Only shortlisted candidates will be called for interview, so a complete, error-free application matters more than usual here.
The project itself is titled "Digitalization of In-house Processes & Automation of Examination System of Federal Public Service Commission (FPSC)," which gives a good sense of the technical and project-management skill set FPSC is looking to bring on board.

Eligibility Criteria and Detailed Terms
FPSC hasn't listed detailed qualifications, experience requirements, or age limits on the print advertisement itself — for a project-based hiring drive like this, that detail is published separately. The full eligibility criteria, required qualifications and experience for each post, and the complete application process are available on FPSC's official website, www.fpsc.gov.pk. Given how specific and technical some of these roles are (Cyber Security Officer, Database Specialist, QA & Testing Engineer), it's worth reading the detailed advertisement carefully before you apply, rather than relying on the summary here.
How to Apply
Interested and eligible candidates need to apply online within 15 days of this advertisement's publication, through FPSC's official website, www.fpsc.gov.pk. Since the exact publication date determines your deadline, it's best to confirm the closing date directly on the FPSC website or the original advertisement rather than assuming a fixed calendar date — FPSC is strict about late submissions, and contract-based project postings like this one typically don't get deadline extensions.
Only shortlisted candidates will be contacted for an interview, so make sure your application, CV, and supporting documents clearly match the post you're applying for before you submit.
