AIIMS Rishikesh Recruitment 2026 for 3 Project Posts (Program Manager & Field Investigator)

This opportunity is ideal for science, paramedical, or social science graduates/postgraduates with a keen interest in public health research, particularly in the domain of NCD risk reduction. Candidates with prior experience in health-related research projects, data collection, and basic laboratory work, who are seeking short-term contractual engagement within a prestigious medical institution, would find these roles highly suitable.

Individuals looking for permanent government employment should not apply, as these positions are strictly temporary and contractual for an extramural research project. Those lacking the specific educational qualifications (graduate/postgraduate in relevant fields) or the mandatory one year of relevant experience in health research or laboratory settings will not be considered. The roles offer a consolidated salary without additional allowances, which might be a dealbreaker for candidates expecting a standard government pay scale with benefits.

Working with AIIMS Rishikesh, a renowned autonomous institution of national importance, offers significant prestige and valuable experience for a research career. While the roles are contractual and project-based, they provide an excellent opportunity to contribute to a critical public health initiative and gain exposure in a leading medical research environment. This experience can be a strong foundation for future academic or research positions, despite the short-term nature of the initial appointment.
