Post-Wise Vacancy Breakdown

All three posts are for GEPCO's Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) work — one post each:

1. Assistant Manager (Database Administration) — 1 post
2. Assistant Manager (Network Support) — 1 post
3. Assistant Manager (Meter Data Management) — 1 post

These are specialist IT/telecom roles supporting GEPCO's smart-metering rollout, so candidates with hands-on database, networking, or metering-systems experience will be the strongest fit.

Eligibility Criteria

Educational Qualification

A relevant degree in the applicable discipline (for example, computer science, information technology, software engineering, telecom/electrical engineering, or a related field relevant to the specific post), as specified in the official NTS/GEPCO advertisement.

Experience

At least 2 years of relevant professional experience in the corresponding area (database administration, network support, or meter data management).

Age Limit

21 to 33 years, including the 5 years of general age relaxation admissible under the rules.

Domicile and Quota

Open merit — candidates from across Pakistan may apply.

How to Apply for GEPCO Assistant Manager Jobs 2026 — Step by Step

1. Visit the official NTS website at nts.org.pk and open the GEPCO project from the announced projects list.
2. Create your NTS account (or log in) using your CNIC, a valid email address, and your mobile number.
3. Select the post you are applying for and fill in the online application form carefully.
4. Generate the fee challan. The applicant's share of the test fee is Rs 270 (half of the Rs 540 total — GEPCO bears the remaining half).
5. Deposit the fee through any 1Link/1Bill participating bank, ATM, internet or mobile banking, Easypaisa, JazzCash, or a TCS Express counter.
6. Submit the online form before 23 October 2026, 11:59:59 pm. If you are applying for more than one post, submit a separate form (and fee) for each post.

Note: applications are not accepted by hand at GEPCO or NTS offices — only the NTS online portal is valid.

Documents You'll Need

• CNIC (valid)
• Academic degrees and transcripts in the relevant discipline
• Experience certificates proving at least 2 years of relevant work
• Recent passport-size photographs
• NTS fee deposit receipt

Important Instructions Before You Apply

• The portal closes on 23 October 2026 at 11:59:59 pm — late submissions are not entertained.
• One separate application form per post; a single form cannot cover multiple posts.
• Nothing is accepted by hand at GEPCO or NTS — online only.
• Only shortlisted candidates are called for the test/interview process; no TA/DA is admissible.
• Read the official NTS project page for the post-specific syllabus and test pattern before you start preparing.

Should You Apply? A Practical Take

Three posts means competition will be sharp, but the applicant pool is also narrow: these are specialist AMI roles, and the 2-year relevant-experience bar filters out fresh graduates. If you have genuine database, network, or metering-systems experience, your odds here are better than in a general-graduate recruitment. The Rs 270 applicant fee is modest, and the 3-year contract in a DISCO's metering program is solid experience even beyond the contract term.

The main risk is procedural — NTS applications are rejected for small errors (wrong CNIC digit, unpaid fee, missed deadline). Treat the form like the test itself.

About GEPCO

The Gujranwala Electric Power Company (GEPCO) is one of Pakistan's public-sector electricity distribution companies (DISCOs), headquartered at 565-A Model Town, Gujranwala. It distributes electricity across its licensed service territory in Punjab and is currently expanding its Advanced Metering Infrastructure — the program these Assistant Manager posts serve.

Selection Process and Preparation Tips

NTS will conduct a screening test for eligible applicants, followed by interviews for qualifying candidates. Check the official NTS project listing for the announced syllabus and test pattern, and prepare from that syllabus. For the interview stage, be ready to discuss your hands-on experience with the systems named in your post (databases, networks, or metering data).

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Submitting one form for multiple posts — each post needs its own form and fee.
• Paying the fee but forgetting to submit the online form (or vice versa).
• Entering CNIC, email, or mobile number incorrectly — NTS communicates through these.
• Trying to submit by hand at a GEPCO or NTS office — it will not be accepted.
• Missing the 11:59:59 pm cut-off on 23 October.

Why This Recruitment Matters

DISCO metering programs are among the few public-sector IT hiring streams in 2026, and AMI work — smart meters, meter-data systems, network operations — is a growing niche. A 3-year contract here builds directly transferable experience for telecom, utilities, and energy-tech roles afterward.
