The Directorate General Wildlife & Parks, Punjab, is hiring for a project that doesn’t fit the usual mold of a wildlife department: “Immersive Wildlife Experience (Cinema & Moving Theatre) in Punjab.” Five positions are open, all contract-based and tied to a specific project timeline rather than a standard permanent posting.
What This Project Actually Is
This isn’t a typical wildlife conservation role — it’s a cinema and moving-theatre experience project run by the Wildlife & Parks Department, likely built around immersive, technology-driven wildlife education or entertainment content. That explains the unusual position mix: a Cinema Manager and Cinema Operators sitting alongside an IT Manager and Network Administrator, all under a wildlife department’s organizational umbrella. If you’re coming from the entertainment, hospitality, or AV/IT industry rather than conservation, this project is actually built for that background.
Positions & Eligibility
| Post | Scale | Posts | Max Age | Qualification & Experience |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cinema Manager | PPS-07 | 1 | 40 | Master’s (16 years, 2nd division) in Business Administration, Hospitality Management, Film Studies or related field + 2–3 years in cinema management or entertainment/hospitality |
| Network Administrator | PPS-07 | 1 | 40 | Master’s (16 years, 2nd division) in Computer Science/IT or related field + 2–3 years as network administrator or similar |
| IT Manager | PPS-07 | 1 | 40 | Master’s (16 years, 2nd division) in Computer Science/IT + 2–3 years in a managerial IT capacity; professional certifications a plus |
| Data Management Associate | PPS-05 | 1 | 32 | Bachelor’s (14 years, 2nd division) in Computer Science/IT or related field + 1 year relevant experience |
| Cinema Operator | PPS-03 | 2 | 25 | Intermediate or equivalent + technical certification in audio-visual technology/electronics preferred + 1 year operating projection/sound equipment |
Private-Sector Experience Counts — With One Condition
Unlike many government ads that only credit public-sector experience, this one explicitly accepts private-sector work history for the Cinema Manager, Network Administrator, and IT Manager posts — provided the employer was registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan, the Registrar of Firms, or another recognized regulatory authority. If your prior employer wasn’t formally registered anywhere, that experience may not count toward the requirement — worth checking before you assume you qualify.

Everything — your application, attested academic records, CNIC, domicile certificate, and a recent passport-size photo — must reach the Project In-Charge’s office through post or courier service, not a walk-in submission.
