THE KOLKATA MUNICIPAL CORPORATION Staff Nurse Recruitment 2026 - 86 Vacancies

This role is ideal for qualified nurses with GNM training or a B.Sc in Nursing, who are permanent residents of West Bengal, registered with the West Bengal Nursing Council, and proficient in Bengali. It suits individuals seeking a stable contractual position within a government health initiative in Kolkata, particularly those who are recent graduates or have less than one year of experience, as experience is not mandatory for eligibility.

Candidates not registered with the West Bengal Nursing Council, lacking proficiency in Bengali, or who are not permanent residents of West Bengal should not apply. Those seeking a permanent government position or a higher pay scale may find this contractual role and fixed remuneration less appealing. Individuals over 40 years of age (as on 01.01.2026), without applicable age relaxation, are also not eligible.

Working with the Kolkata Municipal Corporation under the National Urban Health Mission (NUHM) offers a valuable opportunity to contribute to public healthcare in a major metropolitan area. While it is a contractual position, it provides significant experience in a government-backed health system. Long-term growth may involve transitioning to permanent roles within state health services or leveraging the experience for advanced nursing opportunities in the public or private sector.
