Service Agent (10 Vacancies: Cleaner + Guard) — Direcção Provincial da Saúde do Niassa (Niassa)

The Opportunity

A public tender in the health sector of Niassa Province is open for 10 vacancies in the Service Agent career, divided between 7 positions for Health Unit Cleaners and 3 for Guards.

The tender was authorized by order of August 27, 2026, of the Provincial Governor and falls under Article 34 of the General Statute of State Agents and Officials, approved by Law No. 4/2022, of February 11, read in conjunction with paragraph 1 of Article 16 of the Regulation for Recruitment and Selection of Personnel in the State Apparatus. Selected candidates will secure a 3-year contract.

These are core functions that support the daily operation of public health services — cleaning, organization, maintenance, and surveillance of facilities — and therefore remain continuously in demand: any health facility requires trusted staff working every day so that doctors, nurses, and patients have proper conditions of hygiene and safety.

Where You Will Work

Your assignment will be at a peripheral health unit in Niassa Province, according to the notice. This means working close to communities: health centres and posts where the physical infrastructure depends directly on the work of support staff.

In a rural post, the service agent is often the person who opens the facility in the morning, maintains the yard and facilities presentable, and protects the unit's assets outside regular hours — modest functions in appearance, but decisive in practice.

The required qualifications correspond to the occupation and level of the vacancy, as specified in the notice.

What the Work is Like in These Two Roles

As this is an entry tender for the State apparatus, the detailed tasks will be defined at the unit where you are placed. What the notice already establishes:

• 7 vacancies for Health Unit Cleaner — the standard work for this occupation focuses on hygiene and upkeep: cleaning facilities and outdoor areas, organizing materials, and providing simple daily logistical support;
• 3 vacancies for Guard — function oriented towards the surveillance and protection of the premises and facility assets, access control, and constant attention to the safety of people and property;
• Belonging to the structure of Direcção Provincial da Saúde do Niassa, with placement in peripheral health units;
• 3-year contract — duration applied by the notice to these vacancies and any future vacancies in the same career.

Cleaner and guard are different occupations, but they share one trait: health units cannot function without them. An immaculate space inspires confidence in patients; a guarded facility protects vaccines, equipment, and medicines. Those who perform these roles with pride become essential to the team.

Who We Are Looking For

The tender is aimed at candidates with the basic profile to enter the Service Agent career: physical and mental fitness compatible with activities in Public Administration, regularized personal status, and educational qualifications suited to the role. For the Guard role, regularized military status carries weight — it is a general requirement in the notice. For both, what sets a candidate apart is attitude: punctuality,

honesty when handling property that is not yours, teamwork skills, and respect for patients and visitors, many of whom are in fragile situations. The selection method evaluates documents and applies criteria established in the career's professional qualifiers. If you have prior experience in cleaning, maintenance, or surveillance, mention it in your CV — that portfolio will be reviewed during documentary evaluation.

What You Gain in This Career

Entering public service through support career positions is a genuine path to stability in Niassa: a formal 3-year contract, integration into an essential service, and learning institutional routines — processes, hierarchies, documentation — that subsequently open doors in other departments,

municipalities, or companies that value experience in public health services. Furthermore, working in a health unit teaches procedural discipline that few entry-level roles require: hygiene protocols, safety rules, and daily contact with the public — skills transferable to any future job.
