CMD Kerala Recruitment 2026: 4 Project Engineer & Senior Project Co-ordinator Vacancies

This recruitment is ideal for highly experienced Civil (Structural & Estimation), Mechanical, and Electrical Engineers with a strong background in project management and execution. Candidates with significant post-qualification experience (5-10 years) in government or Public Sector Undertaking (PSU) projects, particularly those related to Kerala Government/KIIFB infrastructure, will find these roles most suitable. A proven track record in project site coordination, structural analysis, estimation, and contract management, along with expertise in relevant IS codes and design software, is highly valued. The roles are best for professionals seeking challenging, high-responsibility contractual positions with competitive pay.

Fresh graduates or candidates with limited professional experience (less than 5 years post-qualification) should not apply, as these positions demand substantial prior expertise. Individuals without specific engineering degrees (Civil, Mechanical, Electrical) or those lacking direct experience in large-scale infrastructure projects, especially within government or PSU frameworks, will not be considered. The contractual nature of the appointment (3 years, extendable) and the requirement for extensive travel across Kerala for project assignments might be a dealbreaker for those seeking permanent roles or fixed-location work.

Working with the Centre for Management Development (CMD), an autonomous institution under the Government of Kerala, offers significant prestige and exposure to state-level infrastructure development. These roles, involving projects for the Kerala Infrastructure Investment Fund Board (KIIFB), provide an excellent platform for contributing to critical public works. While the positions are contractual, they offer high remuneration and valuable experience in managing high-value projects, enhancing a professional's portfolio. The scope includes dynamic involvement in planning, execution, and oversight of key government initiatives, fostering professional growth in specialized engineering and project management domains within a public sector environment.
