Vacancies and post details
| S# | Post | Grade | Vacancies | Qualification |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Project Manager | BPS-17 | 1 | Bachelors/Masters (16 years education) in Civil, Electrical or Computer Engineering, or Project Management; PMP or PRINCE2 preferred |
| 2 | Urban Planning Expert | BPS-17 | 1 | Bachelors/Masters (16 years education) in Urban or Regional Planning; PCATP membership |

| 7 | Cultural Arts Expert | BPS-17 | 1 | Bachelors/Masters in Arts and Cultural Management |
| 8 | Interior Spatial Expert | BPS-17 | 1 | Bachelor’s in Interior Design or Architecture |
Altogether, the 8 titles add up to 11 posts: Architect carries 3 seats, IT Expert carries 2, and the other six titles carry 1 each. Seven of the eight titles sit on BPS-17, while Draftsman alone sits on BPS-14.
What this round covers
The titles cover project delivery, city planning, building design, drafting, visual design, IT systems, cultural arts and interior space. The round, therefore, reads as one hiring push across the corporation’s project, planning and design work rather than a single department.
Because the listing prints no duties for any post, this guide gives general role context for each title in the post table above and in the schema below. The qualification column, therefore, is the best guide to what each post asks for.
Who should apply
These posts suit people whose degree matches the title in front of them. An engineering graduate with a PMP or PRINCE2 certificate, for example, fits the Project Manager post, while a planning graduate with PCATP membership fits the Urban Planning Expert post. Similarly, an architecture graduate with PCATP membership fits the Architect post, and a DAE (Civil) holder with AutoCAD fits the Draftsman post.
In the same way, design graduates fit the Graphic Designer post, computer science or software engineering graduates fit the IT Expert post, and arts and cultural management graduates fit the Cultural Arts Expert post. Readers over 30 years of age as of 15 November 2026, however, fall outside the age limit, so they should not apply. In addition, a degree in a field the listing never names does not match any post in this round.

How to choose between posts
Match your degree first, because each post names its own field and most fields appear only once. Architect is the one post with 3 seats, so it gives the strongest chance to architecture graduates, while IT Expert gives 2 seats to computer science and software engineering graduates.
If two posts fit your degree, pick the one whose qualification you meet in full, because a partial match wastes an application. For example, an architecture graduate fits both Architect and Interior Spatial Expert, so the 3-seat Architect post is the better pick. Draftsman, meanwhile, is the only post for DAE holders, and it is also the only BPS-14 post in the round.
How to apply
The listing gives two routes: email and courier. Use the Apply Now button below to open an email to hr@mci.gov.pk, or send the application by courier to the head office in Sector G-6, Islamabad.
- To begin with, pick the post that fits your qualification and age, and note its title and grade.
- After that, fill in the application form and attach your CV.
- Then add attested copies of your CNIC, domicile, degrees and transcripts, experience certificates, and 2 recent passport-size photos.
- Email the full set to hr@mci.gov.pk, with a copy to dci@mci.gov.pk, or send it by courier to the Head Office, Metropolitan Corporation Islamabad, Sector G-6, Islamabad.
- Finally, send it in time to reach the office before Sunday 15 November 2026, and keep a copy of everything you sent.
Documents and pre-submit checklist
Check each item before you send the application, because the listing asks for attested copies and photos together with the form and CV. A missing document can delay or weaken an application, so run through this list first.
- Application form filled in
- CV attached
- CNIC, attested copy
- Domicile, attested copy
- Degrees and transcripts, attested copies
- Experience certificates
- 2 recent passport-size photos
- Correct post title written on the application
- Sent in time to reach the office before Sunday 15 November 2026
Terms and conditions
Every post in this round is on contract for 1 year, extendable. The age limit is 30 years as of the closing date, and only shortlisted candidates are called for interview. No TA/DA is admissible, so plan your own travel for any interview.
For queries, the listing gives the head office address in Sector G-6, Islamabad, and phone 051-9209224. It names no fee, and it names no test date, so this guide gives neither.
Common mistakes to avoid
First, sending the application after 15 November 2026. Second, applying for a post whose degree you do not hold, when every post names its own field. Third, sending plain copies instead of attested copies of the CNIC, domicile and degrees.
Fourth, forgetting the 2 passport-size photos or the experience certificates. Finally, applying past the age limit of 30 years, or waiting until the last day when courier delivery can run late.
