Legal Advisor

This role is ideal for highly experienced legal professionals holding a Master's degree in Law, who are registered advocates with at least 5 years of specialized experience in legal matters pertaining to animal welfare laws and government litigation. Candidates must possess strong drafting, communication, and computer skills, with a preference for those familiar with the LIMBS portal. It suits individuals seeking a challenging contractual assignment within a central government advisory body.

Candidates who do not possess a Master's degree in Law or lack the mandatory 5 years of relevant legal experience, particularly in animal welfare or government-related legal matters, should not apply. Individuals not registered with a Bar Council or those seeking a permanent government position will find this contractual role unsuitable. Lack of computer proficiency or familiarity with legal drafting will also be a major hurdle.

Working with the Animal Welfare Board of India, a statutory body under a Central Government Ministry, offers significant prestige and exposure to high-impact legal work related to animal welfare policy and litigation. While it is a contractual position for a limited term (initially one year, extendable up to three), it provides valuable experience in specialized government legal advisory, contributing to national animal welfare initiatives. The role offers a competitive fixed remuneration and an opportunity to work at a strategic level.
