# Punjab & Sind Bank seeks Chief Risk Officer on contract 2026-11-07T01:20:35+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Punjab & Sind Bank has invited online applications for the post of Chief Risk Officer (CRO) on a contractual basis. The initial tenure is three years, extendable up to a maximum of five years, subject to annual performance review. Candidates must be between 40 and 55 years of age as on 1 November 2026, with at least five years of experience in Corporate Credit and Risk Management at the level of Assistant General Manager or above in a public sector bank or equivalent. Compensation will be negotiated. Applications can be submitted at punjabandsind.bank.in from 7 November to 17 November 2026. The selection process includes scrutiny, shortlisting and an interview before the Selection Committee. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The one vacancy means competition will be tight, and the short application window of just 11 days pressures candidates to act quickly. The bank's decision to negotiate pay rather than fix a salary could attract experienced applicants but also introduces uncertainty. What remains unresolved is whether the bank will specify a minimum compensation before the deadline. The next step is the closing date of 17 November 2026, after which the Selection Committee will shortlist and interview candidates. ## Coverage - freejobalert.com Straight listing of eligibility, dates and process, no slant.
