CENTRE FOR MANAGEMENT DEVELOPMENT Kerala Recruitment 2026: 7 Project & Management Vacancies

This recruitment is ideally suited for experienced professionals with specialized educational backgrounds in agriculture, food technology, business administration, or computer applications. Candidates should have a proven track record (3-10 years) in relevant fields such as agribusiness promotion, product development, marketing, business development, or project administration. Individuals who are keen on contributing to rural development initiatives on a contract basis within an autonomous institution supported by the Government of Kerala and World Bank will find these roles rewarding.

Candidates seeking permanent government positions should not apply, as these roles are contract-based. Applicants who do not meet the specified minimum experience requirements or lack the exact educational qualifications (e.g., specific postgraduate degrees) will not be considered. Those unwilling to be based in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, or unable to comply with the strict document submission and online application guidelines should also refrain from applying.

The Centre for Management Development (CMD) is an autonomous institution under the Government of Kerala, offering a stable and impactful work environment. These positions are integral to the World Bank-supported Resilient Kerala Program, providing significant exposure to large-scale development projects aimed at strengthening agribusiness and improving farmer income. While the roles are contractual, they offer excellent opportunities for specialists to gain valuable experience and build a strong professional network within government-backed development initiatives, enhancing long-term career prospects in the sector.
