Director of Health Service

This role is ideally suited for highly experienced medical professionals with an MBBS degree and potentially postgraduate qualifications, who have dedicated at least 20 years to the State Health Service. A strong background in administration, specifically 5 years or more in ranks like SDM&HO, is essential. Candidates within the 59-63 age bracket as of January 1, 2026, and registered with the Assam Medical Council, will find this position a perfect fit.

Individuals with less than 20 years of service in the State Health Service, or those lacking the mandated 5 years of administrative experience at SDM&HO rank or above, should not apply. Candidates who do not hold an MBBS degree, are not registered with the Assam Medical Council, or fall outside the specified age range of 59-63 years as on the cut-off date are ineligible. Freshers or those with general medical experience without the specific administrative tenure will not be considered.

This is a prestigious Director-level position within the Health & Family Welfare Department of the Government of Assam, offering significant leadership responsibility and influence in state public health policy and administration. While the specific career growth beyond this role might be limited due to the high age and experience requirements, it represents a culmination of a distinguished career in public service with a substantial pay scale and the opportunity to make a high-level impact.
