Education Program Executive

This role is ideal for highly organized and analytical individuals with a strong background in education program management, training coordination, or academic administration. Candidates possessing a 4-year undergraduate degree, a non-engineering postgraduate degree with 2+ years of experience, or a non-engineering undergraduate degree with 5+ years of experience, particularly those with degrees in Management or Education, would be well-suited. Excellent communication, collaboration, and decision-making skills are crucial. Applicants must be willing to reside in Chennai.

Individuals seeking permanent employment should not apply, as this is a temporary, contract-based position initially for one year. Those lacking specific relevant experience in education program management or related fields, or candidates unwilling to relocate to Chennai, will find this role unsuitable. The extremely limited number of vacancies (3 posts) also makes it highly competitive, potentially discouraging those looking for broader opportunities.

Working with IIT Madras, a premier institution in India, offers significant prestige and a valuable addition to one's professional profile. This role provides an excellent opportunity to gain experience in a cutting-edge department (Data Science and Artificial Intelligence) within a renowned academic environment. While the position is temporary, it could serve as a strong stepping stone for future roles in academic administration, EdTech, or program management. However, the contractual nature limits long-term career security within this specific post at the Institute.
