Introduction
The Punjab Performance Management Unit (PPMU) is a new unit being set up under the Implementation & Coordination Wing of S&GAD, and this is its first major hiring round: 49 contract posts across 11 positions, from a General Manager at PPS-10 (Rs 625,000 a month) down to Field Officers at PPS-06 (Rs 150,000 a month). The work is performance monitoring, policy and research analysis, data work, finance, administration and field inspections across Punjab, with every post based in Lahore. Only Punjab domicile holders can apply, and both men and women are eligible. This PPMU is not the Artificial Intelligence Delivery Unit (AIDU) — that is a separate S&GAD wing whose own advertisement closed on 12 November 2026. Read the post-wise qualification and age limits below, then complete both application steps — online and courier — before 17 November 2026 at 5:00 PM.

How to Apply
Follow both steps — an online form alone is not enough, and a courier copy alone is not enough:
- Open the Punjab Government Job Portal, find the Punjab Performance Management Unit announcement, select your position, complete the online application form carefully, submit it, and print the completed application proforma.
- Send the printed proforma with your CV, a recent passport-size photograph, attested copies of educational and experience certificates, your Punjab domicile and a copy of your CNIC by courier to: Section Officer (Development), Implementation & Coordination Wing, S&GAD, H-Block Building, Punjab Civil Secretariat, Lahore.
- If you apply for more than one position, send a separate application form and envelope for each one, and write the name of the post clearly on the upper-right corner of the envelope.
- Make sure the courier package reaches the office on or before 17 November 2026, before 5:00 PM — allow enough time for delivery, as late applications will not be considered.
