Executive Director, Sr. General Manager & Other Posts

This recruitment is ideally suited for highly experienced government officers (from Central/State Ministries/Departments, Autonomous Bodies, PSUs, or Academic/Research Institutions) with a proven track record. Candidates must possess a Degree in Civil Engineering for technical roles or a Bachelor's/Master's degree (or equivalent professional qualifications like CA/CMA) for non-technical leadership and management positions. Significant prior service (ranging from 6 to 28 years depending on the post) at analogous levels, coupled with excellent performance records and necessary clearances, is mandatory. Ideal applicants are those seeking impactful leadership roles in national infrastructure development on a deputation basis, willing to serve anywhere in India.

Individuals lacking the stipulated minimum years of experience, without prior government service at comparable pay scales, or who exceed the specified age limits (58 years for E7 and below, 59 years for E8 and E9) as on August 5, 2026, should not apply. Inability to secure a No Objection Certificate (NoC) and Vigilance Clearance from the parent organization, or unwillingness to serve across NHIDCL offices in India, are absolute dealbreakers. This is exclusively a deputation opportunity, not suitable for freshers or those seeking direct recruitment.

National Highways & Infrastructure Development Corporation Limited (NHIDCL) is a key Central Government Enterprise under MoRTH, playing a vital role in India's strategic infrastructure development, particularly in challenging terrains. These senior deputation roles (Executive Director, General Manager, Senior Manager etc.) offer high prestige and significant operational scope, directly contributing to critical national projects. They provide excellent exposure and potential for career advancement within the government framework, offering leadership opportunities in a dynamic and nationally important sector.
