Round-the-clock support for children is the focus of this recruitment.

Posts and Disciplines

• Project Coordinator: the helpline’s unit-management role, linking staff, case follow-up and other departments.

Post-wise Duties

Project Coordinator

You will oversee helpline operations, including rosters, case follow-up and coordination with the Police, health services and Child Welfare Committee. The role’s stated work areas also include reporting, outreach and staff training.

Counsellor

You will support children facing crisis or trauma through counselling and suitable referrals. The notice links this role to risk assessment, family support, consent and confidential documentation.

Child Helpline Supervisor

You will oversee calls and case follow-up during your shift. The role’s work areas include recording calls, coordinating rescue support and keeping case files ready for further action.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Tenure: Engagement is renewed annually, with the first term ending on 31 March 2027. You gain no right to regularisation or Government-service status.
• Continuation: Renewal depends on performance, the scheme continuing and funds being released. The agency agreement governs early termination.
• Agency arrangement: The selected agency handles pay and statutory contributions. The Collector controls staff selection, continuation and removal.
• Local preference: Jangaon local candidates receive first consideration in merit order under the Telangana local-cadre rules. Non-local applicants are considered only if no suitable local applicant is available.
• Reservation: Women’s and disability reservation rules apply. The Supervisor and Case Worker rosters will be displayed at the venue before the examination; the other roles fall under open competition.
• Working conditions: You must work rostered shifts, including nights and holidays, and protect children’s and callers’ confidential records. No other employment is allowed.
• Existing staff: Current and former Helpline staff can apply, and their service counts as experience. They receive only the preferences expressly stated in the notice.
• Certificate checks: The engagement ends without notice if an issuing authority does not confirm a certificate. False information can lead to removal and prosecution.
• Public notices: Check the district website and Collectorate notice board for updates; individual messages will not be sent. The waiting list remains valid for one year.
• Child protection: Staff must report child sexual offences that come to their knowledge, as required by section 19 of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act 2012.
