Introduction
The Combined Competitive Examination is the Sindh government’s main route into its BPS-17 officer posts, including the Provincial Management Service, and it is conducted by the Sindh Public Service Commission from Hyderabad. Advertisement No. 06/2026, dated 23 October 2026, modifies the earlier Consolidated Advertisement No. 04/2026 of 19 August 2026, following a decision of the Provincial Cabinet on 20 October 2026. The new advertisement reopens applications so that candidates who became eligible under the revised age limit and attempt rules can apply. Federal posts are advertised separately — see FPSC Jobs 2026 for the federal round closing 23 November 2026.
Vacancy Details
The official advertisements do not print post names or a vacancy total for this examination. The CCE fills BPS-17 posts across Sindh government departments, and posts are allocated according to the number available in each department and the order of options exercised by the candidates. The post-wise detail is set out in the official advertisement on the SPSC website, so do not rely on any guessed list or count.
