Sindh Bureau of Statistics Jobs 2026 – Vacancy Details
The recruitment covers two categories. Female candidates can apply for 140 Enumerator/Measurer posts, and male candidates can apply for 35 Enumerator posts. Together, the two groups make 175 seats. The work is short-term and linked to the survey project, so these are not regular permanent government posts.
| Post Name | Gender | Posts |
|---|---|---|
| Enumerator / Measurer | Female | 140 |
| Enumerator | Male | 35 |
| Total | 175 |
The survey covers every district of Sindh, and candidates apply from their own home district. The bureau will place selected staff in the field work of the SMICS 2026–27 survey, which is an internationally recognised household survey supported by UNICEF. It gathers data that helps the government plan better services for children and women.
Eligibility Criteria for SBoS Enumerator Jobs
Applicants must have passed Intermediate or an equivalent qualification from a recognised institution. Along with this, the advertisement asks for at least one year of post-qualification experience in field surveys related to mother and child health. This experience can cover antenatal care, postnatal care and child immunisation surveys. Candidates must be ready to show documentary proof of this experience with their application.
The age limit is 21 to 40 years, and the general age relaxation under government rules applies as stated in the advertisement. Applicants who do not meet the education or experience conditions will not qualify, so check your record against these two requirements before you pay the fee.
Both men and women can apply, but only for the category meant for their gender. Female candidates apply for the Enumerator/Measurer posts, and male candidates apply for the Enumerator posts.

Application Fee and Short-Term Nature of the Posts
Applicants must pay a non-refundable application processing fee of Rs. 1,500. The fee is paid through the challan that the STS portal generates after you fill in the form. Keep the paid challan safe, because it is part of your application record.
These posts are purely short-term and on a contingency basis for the survey. They do not give any right to regular or permanent employment with the Sindh Bureau of Statistics. Candidates should join with this fact clear in mind, and treat the job as paid survey field work that builds useful experience in data collection.
Why Apply for SMICS Field Staff Jobs
SMICS is a major household survey, and field staff are the people who make it work. Enumerators visit selected homes, ask the survey questions in a polite and clear way, and record the answers correctly. Measurers take simple height, weight and related measurements where the survey asks for them. The work gives hands-on experience in field research, and it suits candidates who like meeting people and working in their own district.
With 175 seats across all 30 districts, the chance of selection is better than in a small single-district recruitment. Women have the larger share of seats, with 140 posts, which makes this round a strong opening for female Intermediate holders with survey experience.
