PERA Jobs 2026 offers 110 posts with the Directorate General Punjab Enforcement and Regulatory Authority (PERA) in Lahore and other districts of Punjab. Apply online through the Punjab Job Portal before Sunday 8 November 2026.
The 110 posts are 10 detailed posts of one seat each, plus 38 Deputy Manager and 62 Assistant Manager posts in DERB Secretariats. The listing names the DERB posts by count only, so their details sit on the portal rather than in this guide.
In brief, PERA is Punjab’s enforcement and regulatory authority. The detailed posts, therefore, cover internal affairs, AI and machine learning, full-stack work, HR, systems, data and audit, while the DERB posts sit in district secretariats.

DERB Secretariat posts
| Post | Vacancies |
|---|---|
| Deputy Manager | 38 |
| Assistant Manager | 62 |
Altogether, 10 plus 38 plus 62 equals 110 posts. The DERB Secretariat posts, however, are listed by count only: Deputy Manager 38 posts and Assistant Manager 62 posts. The listing gives no qualification, grade or duty for them, and their secretariats sit in other districts, not in Lahore, so check the portal for their full details.
How the posts are graded
The listing grades the 10 detailed posts SPPP-2 to SPPP-5. It gives no other detail for the grades, however. Head (Internal Affairs) sits at the top of this list on SPPP-2. Manager (Internal Affairs) and both Team Leads follow on SPPP-3, while Deputy Manager (HR), System Analyst and Data Analyst sit on SPPP-4.
Lastly, both Assistant Managers and the System Support Officer sit on SPPP-5, the lowest grade in this round. The DERB Secretariat posts, in contrast, carry no grade in the listing at all, so this guide gives them none.
Who should apply
These posts suit people whose background matches the role title, because the listing prints no qualification for any post. A candidate with AI and machine-learning experience, for example, fits the Team Lead (AI & ML) post, while a software developer fits the Team Lead (Full Stack) post. Similarly, HR, systems, data and audit backgrounds map to the matching titles in the table.
Government employees can apply too, but only through proper channel and with an NOC ready. Readers with an enforcement background can also check our latest PERA sergeant jobs 2026 guide, which covers a separate PERA enforcement round. In addition, Punjab Police jobs 2026 covers another enforcement opening in the province.
How to apply online in steps
The listing directs candidates to the Punjab Job Portal, and it gives only the portal address instead of a direct listing link. Documents, meanwhile, are uploaded online.
- To begin with, check the post list and grade, and pick the post that fits your background.
- After that, open the Punjab Job Portal through the Apply Now button below and find the PERA advertisement.
- Then complete the online application form and upload your documents online.
- Government employees should also apply through proper channel and keep the NOC ready before submitting.
- Review every entry, then submit online before Sunday 8 November 2026.
The same portal also carries the AIDU SGAD jobs 2026 round, which closes later, on Thursday 12 November 2026.
Terms and conditions
Overall, every post in this round is on contract for 3 years, extendable. Government employees must also apply through proper channel and produce an NOC. No TA/DA is admissible, so plan your own travel for any test or interview.
For queries, the listing also names the Deputy Director (Admin. & HR) / Secretary CEC at PERA HQs, 1st Floor, Alfalah Building, Charing Cross, Mall Road, Lahore, phone 042-99205900. The listing mentions no application fee. It also names no test date or interview schedule.
Common mistakes to avoid
First, missing the 8 November deadline, which falls four days before the AIDU round closes. Second, applying for a DERB Secretariat post and expecting a Lahore posting, when those secretariats sit in other districts. Third, applying as a government employee without an NOC, which the listing expressly requires.
Fourth, assuming a qualification the listing never prints, when the only post details are the title, the grade and the seat count. Finally, waiting until the last day to upload documents, since online portals slow down near the deadline.
