Quick Facts: 15 posts · Advertisement No. 168 · Karachi (NICVD) · Two separate apply portals · Deadline October 11, 2026
Looking for NICVD Jobs 2026? NICVD stands for the National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases, and it’s one of Pakistan’s leading hospitals for heart care. Right now, NICVD has opened 15 positions — everything from senior doctors to nurses to a multimedia specialist. So if you’ve been searching for a job in the medical field, or even something outside medicine like HR or media, this list is worth a proper look.
About NICVD
NICVD doesn’t just treat thousands of heart patients every year — it also trains the next generation of cardiologists. That double responsibility of treating patients and teaching is exactly why this hiring round covers such a wide mix: senior consultants, technicians, a dietitian, and even an HR assistant. If cardiovascular-sector hiring interests you, our Rawalpindi Institute of Cardiology Jobs 2026 guide covers a similar specialty at a different hospital.
Advertisement No. 168 was issued by NICVD on September 26, 2026, and it accepts applications until October 11, 2026. NICVD follows PM&DC (Pakistan Medical & Dental Council) guidelines for nearly all its medical roles and considers itself an equal opportunity employer — so your eligibility for NICVD Jobs 2026 depends only on your qualifications and experience.
NICVD Jobs 2026 – What’s Actually Open
Here’s the full list, and honestly, it ranges wider than most hospital ads you’ll see:
| # | Position | Age Limit | Key Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Consultant Interventional Radiologist | 40 | FCPS Interventional Radiology + 3 years post-qualification experience |
| 2 | Assistant Professor – Paeds Cardiac Critical Care | 35 | FCPS Paediatric Medicine + FCPS Paediatric Cardiology or Fellowship in Critical Care |
| 3 | Senior Registrar – Paeds Cardiac Critical Care | 35 | FCPS Paediatric Medicine + fellowship training in Cardiology or Critical Care |
| 4 | Senior Registrar – Cardiac Imaging | 35 | As per PM&DC rules and regulations |
| 5 | Senior Registrar – Paeds Cardiac Surgery | 35 | As per PM&DC rules and regulations |
| 6 | Dietitian | 28 | BS Food Sciences + 3 years relevant experience |
| 7 | Radiation Protection Officer | 28 | M.Sc Physics + 3 years experience; PNRA certification preferred |
| 8 | Staff Nurse | 25 | B.ScN or Diploma in Nursing + 1 year post-qualification hospital experience |
| 9 | Trainee Staff Nurse | 25 | B.ScN (Generic), fresh candidates with valid PNC license |
| 10 | Echo Technologist | 25 | BS-MT Cardiovascular Sciences + 2 years experience |
| 11 | Echo Technician | 25 | F.Sc Pre-Medical + Diploma + 2 years experience |
| 12 | CSSD Technician | 28 | Matriculation + Diploma + 2 years experience |
| 13 | Surgical Assistant | 25 | BS-MT Surgical Technology + 2 years experience |
| 14 | Multimedia Specialist | 25 | BS Media Science + 2 years experience in photography, videography, editing |
| 15 | Junior Assistant HR | 25 | Graduate + 2 years core HR experience |
Notice how different these roles are from each other. A Consultant Interventional Radiologist needs years of specialized training after FCPS, while a Trainee Staff Nurse just needs a fresh B.ScN degree and a valid license. So don’t skip this NICVD Jobs 2026 list just because you’re not a doctor — there’s a real chance one of the support or technical roles fits you.
Who Can Apply for NICVD Jobs 2026
A few rules apply no matter which post you’re eyeing. First, you need your full qualification and experience ready before October 11 — NICVD won’t count anything you finish after that date. Second, your age gets checked against the closing date, not the day you apply, so work out your exact age as of October 11 before you assume you’re eligible.
There’s also a bit of flexibility built in. General age relaxation of up to 5 years applies under a government notification, so if you’re slightly over the limit for your post, you might still qualify. And if you already work for the government, you can’t just apply directly — you’ll need to send your application through proper channel, meaning your department has to forward it first.
For the top five medical posts, your credentials also have to match PM&DC’s current rules, since the ad points to PM&DC directly instead of listing every requirement itself. Check PM&DC’s latest guidelines if you’re applying for any of the senior clinical roles.
How to Apply for NICVD Jobs 2026
Here’s the part that trips people up: this ad actually splits into two separate application processes, and mixing them up means your application won’t go through at all.
For every position except Staff Nurse and Trainee Staff Nurse:
- Go to www.nicvd.org/careers
- Pick your position from the list.
- Fill in your qualification and experience details online.
- Submit before October 11, 2026.
For Staff Nurse (#8) and Trainee Staff Nurse (#9) only:
- Head to www.nts.org.pk instead — these two roles go through NTS, not NICVD’s own site.
- Register and complete your application there.
- Pay the Rs. 800 test fee through 1Link or 1Bill.
- Save your payment confirmation, since you’ll need it to prove your fee went through.
Because these two systems run separately, applying through the wrong one means starting over. Before you fill anything in, double-check which portal your target NICVD Jobs 2026 position actually needs.

A Few Things Worth Knowing Before You Apply
- NICVD only calls shortlisted candidates for a test or interview, so don’t take silence as a rejection — it might just mean the review hasn’t reached your file yet.
- No TA/DA applies, so if you do get called in, you’ll cover your own travel.
- Management can accept or reject any application without giving a reason, which means meeting the requirements gets you into the pool, not an automatic interview.
- Make sure your qualification and experience are complete before the closing date. Applying while you’re still finishing a certification or a required experience milestone won’t work here.
