The CM Punjab Female Ambassador Programme employs educated women from each Union Council as paid community facilitators who register households for government schemes and provide outreach services — the stipend is Rs. 30,000 per month.
Understand the Female Ambassador Programme
The CM Punjab Female Ambassador Programme employs educated unemployed women in Punjab as community-level ambassadors who disseminate information about government schemes and services to other women in their locality. Ambassadors receive a monthly stipend and training in digital literacy, government portal navigation, and community facilitation.
It's both an employment scheme for qualified women and a service delivery mechanism for reaching women in communities who may not know about programmes like Sehat Card, BISP, Honhaar Scholarship, or Rashan Card. The role requires door-to-door outreach, community meetings, and regular reporting to the district coordinator.
Check the current vacancy announcement at the Punjab IT Board or CM Punjab's official portal — positions are recruited in batches across Punjab's districts.
Confirm You Meet the Selection Criteria
Core requirements for Female Ambassador positions:
- Female, Pakistani national, Punjab domicile
- Age: typically 18–40 years
- Minimum education: Intermediate (FSc/FA or equivalent) — some phases require graduation
- Willing to work in your own Union Council or nearby area (positions are locality-specific)
- Basic smartphone literacy — able to use apps and submit digital reports
- Currently unemployed or underemployed (income below threshold)
Preference is given to women who themselves have used government schemes and can speak credibly to neighbours about the experience. Prior community work or volunteer history strengthens the application.
Apply Through the PITB Portal
Applications are submitted at the Punjab IT Board's jobs portal or the specific Female Ambassador Programme microsite announced with each recruitment round. Go to the advertised URL, register with your CNIC and mobile number, and fill in the application form covering your education, locality, experience, and contact details.
Upload: CNIC copy, educational certificates, recent photograph, and a brief statement of why you want to be a Female Ambassador (written in plain Urdu or English — authenticity matters more than formal language). Submit and keep the application reference number.
Complete the Interview and Onboarding
Shortlisted candidates are called for a brief interview at the district PITB or Women Development Department office. The interview assesses communication skills, familiarity with government schemes, and ability to work independently in the community. It's conducted by a small panel and typically takes 20–30 minutes.
Selected candidates attend a 2–3 day orientation training covering the key government schemes they'll be promoting, the digital reporting tools, and community outreach methods. After training, each ambassador is assigned a geographic area within their Union Council and given their monthly reporting targets and stipend payment schedule.
Application and Eligibility Problems
Ensure CNIC is 13 digits with no dashes. If the portal still rejects it, your CNIC may need verification — check its validity at verisys.nadra.gov.pk first.
Interviews are typically in the district headquarter city — if you live in a tehsil town, you may need to travel to the district HQ. Confirm the interview venue in the shortlist notification letter.
Part-time or informal employment below the income threshold doesn't automatically disqualify. The 'unemployed' criterion targets formally unemployed women. Disclose your part-time income honestly — misrepresentation discovered later can terminate the contract.
Frequently Asked Questions
Stipend amounts vary by phase — typically Rs. 20,000–35,000/month. Check the current recruitment announcement for the exact stipend for your district tier (urban vs rural areas sometimes differ).
No — it's a contractual position, typically on a 1-year renewable contract. It's not a gazetted government job with pension or permanent benefits. However, it provides valuable experience and income for women building their professional profile.
Each ambassador covers her assigned Union Council or nearby area — typically 200–500 households within walking or easy motorcycle distance. Positions are locality-specific so women can work near home.
