FOREWORD

Program Monitoring and Implementation Unit (PMIU) was established in 2003 for the monitoring
and implementation of various reforms activities under the umbrella of Punjab Education Sector
Reforms Program (PESRP) and School Education Department. The aim of PMIU has been to
serve as dedicated counterpart team of School Education Department to undertake the
education reform interventions and to ensure timely implementation and monitoring of activities
under PESRP. These reforms interventions have been supported by the Development partners
i.e. The World Bank and DFID in addition to the Government of Punjab.

Since joining PMIU in September 2013, it was my aim to introduce reforms in this
organization as well to enhance its role as a leading agency for education reforms. It was for the
same reason that the HR Specialist Ali Gardezi was tasked to design and implement the HR
best practices across the organization.

The development of Job descriptions (JDs) is the first step in any HR initiative as they
clarify the responsibilities linked to each and every position. The JDs of all the officers and staff
including the consultant positions in PMIU have been prepared after an exhaustive exercise by
the HR Specialist. This activity comprised of conducting job analysis of every position followed
by interviews with all the incumbents and their supervisors along with study of the relevant
information regarding the position roles in modern organizations. The manual will be a source
of guidance for the employees and their supervisory officers and will be highly useful in the
performance management of PMIU employees. These Job Descriptions will also serve as
reference point for designing training programs for any specific position or cell.

I am hopeful that this effort of preparing JDs will go a long way in professionalizing our
employees and introduction of a result oriented culture across the organization.

PREFACE

The development of Job Descriptions is the first step towards making the Program Monitoring
and Implementation Unit (PMIU) a professional and forward looking organization. The process
of developing the JDs involved developing a clear understanding of the scope of the functions of
PMIU and its evolution into its present form in the last 11 years. The PMIU occupies a central
place among all the sister organizations of School Education Department. Its role as the prime
agency for gathering information from the Schools across Punjab and carrying out the data
analysis for a number of reports including indicator based rankings demands a very professional
attitude and understanding of job requirements on the part of its employees. The task of
introducing various reform interventions by PMIU and then evaluating their impact is critical for
decision making at the highest level of government.

These job descriptions have been prepared after interviewing the incumbents, their
supervisors and keeping in view the functions of their cell and also the broader scope and vision
of the organization. I am confident that these JD’s will lead PMIU towards professionalizing the
HR through introduction of the modern goal setting process, performance management system
and a compensation strategy linking pay to performance. The JDs structure attempts to define
the role of officers based on their desired value addition in the organization hierarchy.

The development of JDs for PMIU presented a unique challenge as three


categories of employees are working here. The first category is the provincial government
employees who have been posted to PMIU, the second category of employees is the contract
employees and the third category of the employees are those who have been hired under the
T.A. component of The World Bank.

In the end I would like to thank all the officers and staff for their cooperation in the
development of these Job Descriptions.
