SEBI Security Coordinator Recruitment 2026 — 1 Post, Apply by 03 Sep

Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has released its Security Coordinator Recruitment 2026 notification, inviting applications for 1 post on a contractual basis. Eligible candidates can apply online from 14 August 2026 until 03 September 2026. Applicants need a Graduate degree from a recognized University/NDA/Open University, along with either a minimum of 20 years' commissioned service in the Indian Army/Navy/Air Force (not below the rank of Lieutenant Colonel), or 14 years of Short Service Commission (Non-Technical) plus 6 years of security officer experience in banks or financial institutions, and computer literacy in MS Office. The Security Coordinator role at SEBI carries a maximum age limit of 60 years as on 31 August 2026. Selection for this SEBI post involves an Interview and a Medical Fitness assessment. Selected candidates will receive a consolidated remuneration between Rs. 3,91,714 and Rs. 5,11,714 per month, based on the pay scale Rs. 1,67,000-5,300(1)-1,72,300-5,600(2)-1,83,500-5,900(3)-2,01,200-7,100(5)-2,36,700. Interested candidates should apply online through the official SEBI website well before the 03 September 2026 deadline, since there is no application fee for any category. This SEBI Security Coordinator post stands out among government recruitment listings for its exceptionally high consolidated remuneration of up to Rs. 5,11,714 per month, reflecting the seniority and specialized nature of the role, which involves securing the market regulator's premises, personnel, and sensitive financial market infrastructure, typically requiring the strategic oversight and command experience only found at senior Armed Forces officer ranks or equivalent bank/financial security leadership positions. Candidates should note the two distinct eligibility pathways offered: a purely military route requiring 20 years of commissioned service at or above the rank of Lieutenant Colonel, or an alternative route combining 14 years of Short Service Commission (Non-Technical) service with 6 additional years of civilian security officer experience specifically in banks or financial institutions, allowing candidates from slightly different career trajectories within the security and defence space to qualify. Given the maximum age limit of 60 years, this role is well-suited to recently retired senior military officers or experienced financial-sector security professionals seeking a high-responsibility second career at India's capital markets regulator in Mumbai. Interested candidates should apply well ahead of the deadline given the seniority of this role.
