Bank of Baroda C&IC Contractual Recruitment 2026 — 65 VP/DVP/AVP Posts, Apply by 6 July

Bank of Baroda (BOB) has invited online applications for 65 posts across 12 positions in its Corporate & Institutional Credit (C&IC) department, under advertisement BOB/HRM/REC/ADVT/2026/11 — a recruitment of professionals on a fixed-term engagement on contractual basis. The roles span Vice President (VP), Deputy Vice President (DVP) and Assistant Vice President (AVP) grades, and are built around corporate relationship management and corporate / transaction-banking sales. This is a senior, experience-gated drive aimed at working banking and finance professionals.

What these roles involve

The positions fall into a few families. VP — Relationship Heads (Real Estate, MNCs, Credit Lite Clients) own large-corporate relationships, grow the book, drive new-to-bank business and risk-free fee income, and lead the relationship teams. DVP roles cover the Market Intelligence Unit, Transaction Banking product sales and a Senior Relationship Manager track. AVP II and AVP I officers work as relationship managers, product managers and product-sales managers across corporate banking, transaction banking (trade, forex, cash management) and credit — sourcing clients, cross-selling, monitoring accounts and credit appraisal. Strong relationship-management, sales and corporate-credit skills are central to every role.

Vacancies & reservation

The biggest openings are the AVP II — Relationship Manager (30 posts) and the DVP — Senior Relationship Manager (12 posts), so mid-to-senior relationship professionals have the widest choice; the VP and DVP-Head roles are single posts each. Of the 65 vacancies, the roster is UR 57 and OBC 8 — this contractual drive carries no SC/ST/EWS-reserved posts and no ex-servicemen reservation in the officer cadre. The Bank may revise vacancies, so confirm the post-and-category split in the official advertisement.

Nature of engagement — fixed-term contract

These are contractual, not permanent, posts, and the term depends on the grade. For AVP I and AVP II, the initial engagement is 5 years, extendable at the Bank's discretion by up to a further 5 years (maximum 10). For VP and DVP, the initial engagement is 3 years, renewable one year at a time up to a total of 5 years. Every engagement is valid only up to a maximum age of 60 or the end of the contract term, whichever is earlier, and ends automatically on expiry unless renewed. Weigh this carefully against a permanent role before applying.

Eligibility & remuneration notes

Beyond the qualification, age and experience listed in the eligibility section, two rules catch people out: experience of under six months in any organisation is not counted, and clerical-cadre experience does not qualify. A satisfactory credit history is required — a CIBIL score of 680 or above at the time of joining. Remuneration is not a fixed scale: it is market-benchmarked, decided on your qualifications, experience, overall suitability and last drawn salary, and negotiated at the interview stage. If you want the permanent (regular-basis) BOB officer roles instead, see the parallel Bank of Baroda C&IC Recruitment 2026 (regular basis, 86 posts).
