Nagapattinam DSWO Gender Specialist Recruitment 2026

Nagapattinam DSWO Gender Specialist Recruitment 2026: Overview

The District Social Welfare Office (DSWO), Nagapattinam in Tamil Nadu is hiring a Gender Specialist for its District Hub for Empowerment of Women (DHEW), which runs under the Mission Shakti scheme. The hub keeps an eye on every central and state scheme meant for women in the district: how each scheme is carried out, how its funds are allotted and whether the benefits really reach women. It also brings these services together in one place.

This is a contract-based post at the district hub, so your work will be centred on Nagapattinam district. The opening suits someone with a social work degree who has already spent a few years on gender equality work, whether in a government department or with an NGO.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Nature of engagement: The post is filled on a contract basis; it is not a regular government appointment.
• Consolidated pay: You get a fixed consolidated monthly amount, not a pay-scale salary with yearly increments.
• Experience must be gender-focused: Your work history should be on gender equality or gender-related themes. Experience from either a government body or a non-government organisation counts.
• Language of the notice: The official press note is published in Tamil, so read it carefully along with the application form before you post your papers.
