State Bank of India has listed two new regular Specialist Cadre Officer recruitment advertisements covering a combined 77 vacancies: 60 Manager/Deputy Manager (Security) positions and 17 Assistant Manager–Engineer (Fire) positions. Its official careers portal gives an application window of 4–25 November 2026 for both advertisements.
Two advertisements, not one interchangeable role
The official State Bank of India careers listing identifies advertisement CRPD/SCO/2026-27/28 for Manager (Security) and Deputy Manager (Security) on a regular basis and advertisement CRPD/SCO/2026-27/29 for Assistant Manager–Engineer (Fire), also on a regular basis. The combined advertised figure of 77 consists of 60 security posts and 17 fire-engineering posts; each is a separate recruitment with its own prescribed conditions.
| Advertisement | Positions | Reported vacancies | Application dates |
|---|---|---|---|
| CRPD/SCO/2026-27/28 | Manager / Deputy Manager (Security) | 60 | 4–25 November 2026 |
| CRPD/SCO/2026-27/29 | Assistant Manager–Engineer (Fire) | 17 | 4–25 November 2026 |
The vacancy counts are corroborated by specialist recruitment coverage. The bank may issue changes or corrigenda, so candidates should rely on the latest advertisement documents accessible from the official portal rather than an older job-site summary.
Who should examine each notice?
The security vacancies are specifically aimed at applicants with the prescribed armed-forces or paramilitary officer-service background. A general banking degree or previous bank employment alone is not evidence of eligibility. Fire-engineer vacancies instead concern specified engineering, fire-safety and related experience qualifications; they should not be mistaken for general clerical or probationary-officer recruitment.
The official security recruitment registration portal separately displays the 4 November opening date, 25 November closure and a 10 December last date for printing applications. That later printing date is not an extension of the registration deadline. Applicants must read the detailed role-specific eligibility conditions, age cut-offs, category rules, fitness requirements and selection stages in the corresponding SBI advertisement before paying a fee.
What it means for SBI staffing
These postings are relevant to the professional banking community because they relate to specialist manpower in premises security and fire safety, functions that support branch and administrative operations. The notices do not announce promotions of existing staff or change the service conditions of current SBI employees. Nor do they guarantee an appointment to anyone who applies.
Earlier SBI risk-specialist and forex/research recruitment advertisements, with a different application window, are separate vacancies already reported elsewhere. This article covers only the new security and fire-engineering recruitment notices.
