Quick answer: NAFSA jobs November 2026: the National Agri-Trade and Food Safety Authority (NAFSA) Pakistan, a federal regulator, has advertised 21 vacant positions in The News on 8 November 2026: Director Finance & Procurement, Director Internal Audit & Risk, 11 Deputy Directors (animal health, food safety, SRD, ITC, surveillance and business registration), 4 Assistant Directors, 2 Personal Secretaries and 2 Inspectors. Locations: Islamabad, Karachi, Multan, Gilgit-Baltistan and “different stations across Pakistan”. Apply online only (QR code in the ad). The deadline is 15 days after the advertisement date, so about 23 November 2026.
Check before you apply: the ad does not print qualification, experience, age or pay. They are on the official job descriptions behind the QR code. When we checked the official portal on 9 November 2026, only one of the 21 posts (Director Finance & Procurement, Islamabad) had its full job description published (posted 7 November). The other 20 were not yet visible on the portal, so for them we write “see official JD” and do not guess. The exact closing date is not printed: 23 November is our calculation (8 November + 15 days), and the portal posted the first job on 7 November, so apply a few days early.

What the Ad Does Not Say
Not printed in the ad:
- Qualification, experience, age limit and pay for every post (they are on the portal JD).
- The number of seats in each row (each row is one listed position; a post such as Inspector may cover several stations).
- The exact closing date (only “15 days after the date of advertisement”).
- Whether the posts are contract or permanent (the one JD we read says contract; the ad itself says recruitment is subject to Federal Government directives).
- Test or interview dates.
New here? NAFSA ran an earlier recruitment drive in October 2026 with a different list of posts (plant, pesticide, finance, HR and legal side). See our guide NAFSA Jobs October 2026: 37 posts. This November list adds the animal, veterinary and food safety posts and the Director Finance & Procurement and Director Internal Audit & Risk posts.
Safety Note: Apply Only Through the Official Route
Read before you apply:
- Apply only through the QR code in the newspaper ad or the official Pakistan Single Window portal. The ad does not mention any fee; do not pay anyone for a “NAFSA job”.
- The ad gives one HR phone number, 051-9245587, and the portal gives hr.support@psw.gov.pk. Treat messages from any other number or email as suspicious.
- Nobody can “arrange” a NAFSA post for money. Selection is by shortlisting and merit only.
- This article is a reading of the newspaper ad and the portal on 9 November 2026. The printed ad and the official portal are final.
Karna / Nahi Karna
Karna:
- Scan the QR code today and read the official JD of your post.
- Match education and experience carefully: Director and Deputy Director posts are senior roles.
- Apply a few days before the deadline (about 22–23 November 2026).
- Keep your CV, degrees, experience letters and CNIC scans ready.
- Veterinary, agriculture and food-safety candidates: check each “Animal” and “Plant” title, because they are different posts.
Nahi karna:
- Do not rely on this article alone for qualification or age: the ad does not print them.
- Do not apply by post, email or hand: the ad says online.
- Do not pay money to anyone for this job.
- Do not expect TA/DA for any test or interview.
- Do not wait for the last day: the exact closing date is not printed.
