The National Bank of Pakistan (NBP) has opened applications for four contract positions in corporate and investment banking and in engineering, with the closing date set for 13 November 2026. The advertisement appeared in the Daily Dawn on 1 November 2026 under reference PID K.1436/26, and applications are received online only through the bank's recruitment partner, Sidat Hyder Morshed Associates.

The four posts are Associate, Relationship Manager for Cash Management, Relationship Manager for Corporate Banking, and Assistant Resident Engineer (Civil). The Associate post, graded OG-II/OG-I, is based in Karachi and reports to the Unit Head for Corporate Finance. The cash management post, also OG-II/OG-I, covers Islamabad and Multan and reports to the Unit Head for Cash Management. The corporate banking post, OG-II/OG-I, is based in Lahore. The engineering post, graded OG-III, is based in Peshawar.

Each post carries its own eligibility conditions. The Associate role asks for a minimum of graduation from a university, college or institute recognised by the Higher Education Commission, with a master's degree or professional qualification preferred, plus at least two years in banking or financial institutions, including one year in corporate or investment banking. The cash management role asks for the same minimum education and two years of banking experience, including one year in cash management sales or corporate banking. The corporate banking role asks for graduation in business studies, finance, commerce, economics, accounting, engineering or a related field, with two years in banking including one year in corporate credit or lending; CA, ICMA, ACCA, CMA, CFA or FRM qualifications are preferred. The engineering post asks for a bachelor's degree in civil engineering from a recognised university, with valid Pakistan Engineering Council registration preferred.

The advertisement does not state how many vacancies sit behind each title, so candidates should not assume a fixed number of seats per post. The salary ranges shown with the listings are PKR 100,000 to 180,000 a month for the Associate post, PKR 150,000 to 250,000 for each relationship manager post, and PKR 80,000 to 130,000 for the engineering post, with actual pay offered as per the bank's policy and the candidate's experience. Readers should check the Sidat Hyder listing for the exact place of posting, because reproductions of the advertisement differ on whether the corporate banking post also covers Islamabad.

All four appointments are on contract for three years, renewable at the management's discretion. NBP describes itself as an equal opportunity employer and welcomes applications regardless of gender, religion or disability. Only shortlisted candidates who strictly meet the basic eligibility criteria will be invited for a test or panel interview, and no travel or daily allowance is payable for the test or interview.
