State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) has announced new job opportunities in its Cyber Security Department, inviting applications from talented and energetic candidates for two positions related to cyber operations and security response. The vacancies include Cyber Operation and Response Senior Cyber Operations Analyst (OG-3) and Cyber Operation and Response SOC Administrator (OG-3). Through this recruitment announcement, SBP is seeking suitable professionals to join its cybersecurity operations and contribute to strengthening its digital security capabilities. Interested candidates can review the detailed eligibility criteria and application procedure through the official SBP careers portal before submitting their applications.
The first advertised position is Cyber Operation and Response Senior Cyber Operations Analyst, offered at the OG-3 level. The position is associated with the bank’s cyber operations and response function, an area that plays an important role in monitoring digital environments, identifying potential security concerns and supporting organizational cybersecurity operations. As financial institutions increasingly depend on digital platforms, secure information systems and interconnected technological infrastructure, maintaining effective cyber operations has become an important part of protecting institutional resources and sensitive information. Professionals working in this area generally contribute to identifying suspicious activities, examining security-related incidents and supporting appropriate response measures. However, candidates interested in this particular vacancy should consult the official recruitment announcement for the specific responsibilities, qualifications, experience requirements and other conditions attached to the position.
The second vacancy is for Cyber Operation and Response SOC Administrator, also offered at the OG-3 level. A Security Operations Center (SOC) is an important component of an organization’s cybersecurity structure, focusing on the continuous monitoring and management of security-related activities. SOC functions generally involve observing network and system activity, reviewing security alerts, identifying potential threats and coordinating responses to incidents that may affect digital infrastructure. SOC administration also supports the operational environment required for security monitoring and response activities. With financial institutions handling increasingly complex digital operations, professionals with relevant technical knowledge and experience in security operations can play an important role in maintaining secure technology environments. SBP has not provided the detailed job descriptions or eligibility conditions in its recruitment poster, making it important for prospective applicants to consult the official careers portal for complete information before applying.
Applicants are advised to carefully review the requirements for their preferred position and ensure that they meet the prescribed qualifications and experience criteria before proceeding with the application. The recruitment announcement provides an opportunity for professionals working in cybersecurity, security operations and related technical fields to explore career opportunities within Pakistan’s central banking institution. Both vacancies fall under the OG-3 employment level and are associated with the Cyber Security Department. The last date to submit applications for these positions is November 16, 2026. Interested candidates should complete the application process through the designated portal before the closing date to be considered for the advertised opportunities.
