The Punjab Education Initiatives Management Authority (PEIMA) has just opened 31 contract-based positions, with salaries running as high as Rs 750,000 per month for senior roles.
PEIMA is the autonomous body set up under the Government of Punjab’s School Education Department, and its entire job is making sure quality education actually reaches children across the province. To do that, they’re now hiring across administration, finance, research, monitoring, data, and IT — real leadership and technical roles, not entry-level clerical work.
Below is the complete breakdown — every position, every salary, every eligibility requirement, and exactly how to apply before the window closes.
Quick Summary: PEIMA is hiring for 31 posts — Directors (Rs 750,000/month), Chief Audit Officer, Data Analyst & Data Engineer (Rs 350,000/month), Assistant Directors (Rs 225,000–300,000/month), and Assistants (Rs 150,000/month). Apply only online through the Punjab Jobs Portal before 15 August 2026. No hand, courier, post, or email applications accepted.
Director-Level Positions — Rs 750,000 Per Month
These are the top-tier roles in this recruitment drive, and the pay reflects that. PEIMA is hiring 6 Directors, one for each of the following departments:
For all six Director posts, the general eligibility is the same: you’ll need 16 years of education in a relevant field (Business Administration, HRM, Public Administration, Finance, Mass Communication, Education, Statistics, or Social Sciences depending on the specific post), and at least 10 years of verifiable relevant experience, including a minimum of 3 years at a senior level. A Master’s, M.Phil, or PhD in the relevant subject is preferred. The age bracket for these posts is 35 to 55 years.
Senior Specialist Roles — Rs 350,000 Per Month
The Chief Audit Officer role wants an ACCA/ICMA/CA or equivalent qualification, along with at least 5 years of relevant post-qualification experience in audit, risk management, and compliance.
The Data Analyst and Data Engineer roles both need a Master’s degree or 16 years of qualification in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Data Science, or a related field, plus at least 5 years of hands-on experience — think SQL, Python, Excel, data visualization tools, and for the Data Engineer role specifically, experience with cloud platforms like Azure or AWS and frameworks like Hadoop or Spark.
Assistant Director Positions — Rs 225,000 to Rs 300,000 Per Month
This is the largest group of vacancies in this recruitment drive, spread across multiple departments:
Across most of these posts, you’ll need 16 years of education in the relevant discipline and at least 3 years of post-qualification experience in that specific function. The IT & Software Development post specifically wants Computer Science or Software Engineering graduates with real hands-on experience in software development, mobile/web applications, database design, and modern DevOps tools.
Assistant & Assistant (IT) Posts — Rs 150,000 Per Month
PEIMA is also hiring 7 Assistant positions and 2 Assistant (IT) positions, both offering Rs 150,000 per month, for candidates aged 20 to 40 years. These require a relevant Bachelor’s or Master’s-level qualification and at least 1 year of relevant experience — a much more accessible entry point than the Director or Assistant Director roles if you’re earlier in your career.
