Ministry of Defence NASTP Jobs 2026 – Apply Before 20 November 2026

Ministry of Defence NASTP Jobs 2026 are open for 14 vacancies at the High End Skill Development Centre in Aerospace Industry, Rawalpindi. The Ministry of Defence invites qualified Pakistani nationals to apply for project management, engineering, finance, IT, administration and support positions in this Public Sector Development Programme (PSDP) project at the National Aerospace Science & Technology Park (NASTP). The appointments are purely on contract basis, for one year, extendable on performance. Applications go online only through the National Job Portal at njp.gov.pk, and the last date is 20 November 2026.

Job Details

NASTP is the National Aerospace Science & Technology Park, and this project builds high-end skills for the aerospace industry. The project needs a small team of managers and specialists: a Project Manager, an Assistant Project Manager, a Manager for Contracts, a Manager for Finance, a Quantity Surveyor, three Assistants, three Computer Operators and three Support Staff. Because these are project posts under a PSDP development project, candidates should not assume that the appointments provide permanent government employment.

Two things about this round need care, and this article states both plainly. First, the advertisement does not specify age limits for individual positions, and it does not give a complete experience table, so this article does not claim either. The complete job descriptions, with experience and age conditions, are available on the National Job Portal, and candidates must check the detailed description of their post there before applying. Second, the advertisement does not state exact monthly salaries, so no salary figure is given in this article.

Eligibility Criteria & Qualifications

The advertisement invites applications from Pakistani nationals. Qualifications range from Matriculation to engineering degrees and professional finance qualifications. Relevant degrees must meet the HEC and PEC recognition requirements stated in the advertisement.
